Ingredients

  • FOR THE DRESSING:
  • 1/4 cups Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 Tablespoons Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh Lemon Zest
  • 1 teaspoon Whole Grain Mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoons Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoons Freshly Cracked Black Pepper
  • FOR THE SALAD:
  • 2 cups Thinly Sliced (On A Bias) Celery
  • 4 cups Fresh Italian Flat Leaf Parsley, Roughly Chopped
  • 1-1/2 cup Steamed Chestnuts, Halved
  • 1 cup Cooked Wild Rice

Method

  • Add all dressing ingredients to a large bowl and whisk until incorporated.
  • Add salad ingredients to dressing and toss well.
  • Notes:
  • You can cook the wild rice beforehand. I will cook 2 to 3 batches of wild rice, portion into 1/2-cup portions, wrap in plastic wrap, and freeze so I always have some on hand ready to go!
  • Add avocado and chicken to make it a meal instead of a side salad!
