"One of my favorite 5 Ingredient recipes. Actually 2 ingredients for the salad; and, 3 for a simple creamy dressing. Let it set a good 30 minutes to 1 hour before serving. And, make sure to use FRESH tarragon, it is really important to the dish. I use a mandolin for this recipe, but you can also thin slice by hand."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Dressing ... Mix the yogurt with the lemon juice, tarragon, and season with salt and pepper in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate while you make the salad.

Step 2

Note: If NOT using Greek yogurt; it is best to drain the yogurt in cheese cloth, a coffee filter, or in a fine strainer over night.

Tips


  • A Mandolin is great to have for this, but NOT necessary. Just makes it easier is all.
