Ingredients

1 small head green cabbage, finely chopped (about 8 cups chopped)

½ English cucumber or 3 small garden cucumbers, diced

1 avocado, diced

1 bunch green onions, finely chopped

1 recipe Green Goddess Dressing (or to taste)

Tortilla chips, optional (for serving)

Instructions

Chop:
Slice the cabbage in half and remove the core. Lay each half flat and slice into thin shreds, then cross-cut into confetti-sized pieces. Dice cucumbers and avocado, and finely chop green onions — aim for uniform size.

Mix:
In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped cabbage, cucumbers, avocado, and green onions.

Make the Dressing:
Blend all dressing ingredients (see linked Green Goddess Dressing recipe) in a food processor or blender until smooth and bright green.

Toss and Serve:
Pour the dressing over the chopped veggies, to taste. Toss well to combine. Serve immediately as a salad or with tortilla chips as a dip.

Notes

Best Served Fresh: The salad tastes best and looks freshest within 24 hours, especially with avocado added.

Make Ahead Tips: Chop all ingredients except avocado and store separately from the dressing for up to 3 days. Add avocado and dressing just before serving.

Versatility: Top with grilled chicken or salmon for a more filling meal. Use leftovers in wraps or grain bowls.
