- Green Goddess Dressing (my vegan recipe posted on this site #10039)
- Garnish: fresh parsley and avocado slices
How to Make
-
Step 1: Place the drained chickpeas in a mixing bowl, then mash with a potato masher (there should be no whole chickpeas left but they should not be completely smooth like hummus, you want a little texture. Mix in the capers and 2 tablespoons of the Green Goddess dressing.
-
Step 2: TO ASSEMBLE: place the lettuce leaves in 4 wide bowls.
-
Step 3: Place a handful of potato slices and green beans in each bowl in piles on top of the lettuce leaves, along with onion slices and cherry or grape tomatoes.
-
Step 4: Place a scoop of the mashed chickpea mixture in the middle, then top with olives.
-
Step 5: Garnish with chopped parsley and avocado slices.
-
Step 6: Serve the dressing on the side.
