The Greenest Green Salad Recipes
THE GREENEST GREEN SALAD
The cookbook author Jessica Battilana's advice to home cooks is simple: "If you're going to spend your energy somewhere, spend it somewhere that matters." Put her philosophy into practice and make this simple, satisfying salad. All the ingredients can be easily found at any grocery store, and the salad will come together quickly in the kitchen, though it looks and tastes like it requires much more effort and time to prepare. Perhaps most happily, even the most discerning critics - the 4-and-under crowd - will delight in its flavor and crunch and politely ask for seconds.

Steps:
- Line a large plate with paper towels. Set aside. Bring a medium saucepan of generously salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the snap peas, and cook until just tender, about 90 seconds. Use a strainer to remove the peas onto the prepared plate, and spread out in a single layer. Allow to cool and dry completely (the dressing won't stick to a wet snap pea). Cut each pea in half crosswise on the bias.
- In a large bowl, combine the snap peas, romaine, cucumbers and green onions. Mix well to combine. Add the avocado and about half the dressing. Mix gently with your hands until the salad is well coated with dressing, adding more if necessary. Taste, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve cold, immediately. Cover and refrigerate remaining dressing for up to 1 week.
ALL THE GREEN THINGS SALAD
This salad is absolutely chock-full of lovely green spring produce, with textures ranging from crunchy to creamy. You can make the zippy lemon dressing and blanch, drain, and chill the peas and asparagus up to 2 days ahead, but combine all the elements shortly before serving to preserve the color of the avocado and the crunch of the greens. Delicate pea tendrils or shoots would be spectacular here, but watercress makes a delicious peppery substitute. Though you may be tempted to use only one herb, we urge you to use both: The parsley adds a burst of freshness, and the mint contributes deep herbal goodness.

Steps:
- For the orange vinaigrette: In a salad dressing shaker, combine the orange juice, vinegar, honey, red onions and olive oil; shake to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Make sure to shake the vinaigrette once again right before dressing the salad. (Reserve any extra vinaigrette in the refrigerator for up to a week.)
- For the salad: In a medium bowl, combine the fennel and radishes, breaking up any pieces that are sticking together. Add the orange supremes, upland cress, pistachios and olives and gently fold the ingredients together. Season with salt and pepper.
- Gently toss the salad with vinaigrette and garnish with fennel fronds. Serve immediately.
