Cooking With Kitten: Very Green Dressing

Here's another recipe from The Moosewood Cookbook. It's a salad dressing that's made with no oil and lots of green leafy produce.

VERY GREEN DRESSING

INGREDIENTS:
  • a handful of fresh parsley
  • a handful of fresh spinach
  • 1/2 a small zucchini, cut into chunks (don't peel it before cutting it)
  • 10-15 basil leaves
  • 1 medium clove garlic, peeled (you may want to cut it in half)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • OPTIONAL: a few chunks of avocado; moderate amounts of other fresh herbs, such as chives, dill, or cilantro

Combine everything in a blender and press the liquify button. Makes over a cup of dressing. Put it in a Ball jar with a sterile lid and put it in the fridge.
