This green goddess salad features fresh salad greens mixed with a creamy and flavor-packed dressing. Watch the video below to see how I make it in my kitchen!
In a large mixing bowl, add the romaine lettuce, cucumbers, and green onions and mix well.
Make the dressing by adding the basil, shallots, cashews, and garlic in a food processor. Add the lemon and parmesan cheese and blend until smooth.
Pour the dressing on top and toss through until all the salad is coated.
