Recipe: Fresh Restaurant Ten Veg Salad

Salads - Vegetables
FRESH RESTAURANT TEN VEG SALAD

"You may not have tried kohlrabi, but you've probably seen this knobby purple or green vegetable in the grocery store or market. It wasn't long ago that I first tried it. I was visiting my parents when family friend Tim Turner (aka Chewy) and I got to talking about vegetables. He couldn't believe I'd never had kohlrabi. He went right out and got me one, and I've been a fan of it ever since. If you can't find kohlrabi, just substitute broccoli stems, jicama, or even chopped cucumber - you just want something light and crunchy."



"Having some warm elements on a salad always makes it feel more special, and the grilled asparagus and oyster mushrooms on this salad really elevate it.

Nuts, seeds, tofu, or tempeh are great additions and round out this medley of cold and warm veggies."

8 stalks asparagus
8 large oyster mushrooms
1/2 tsp (2 mL) tamari
1/2 to 1 tsp (2 to 5 mL) sunflower oil
4 cups (1 L) shredded napa cabbage
1/2 cup (125 mL) shredded carrot
1/2 cup (125 mL) shelled edamame
1/2 cup (125 mL) frozen corn, thawed, rinsed, and drained
8 grape tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup (125 mL) shredded kohlrabi*
1/2 cup (125 mL) chopped red bell pepper
8 slices avocado
1/2 to 1 cup (125 to 250 mL) dressing of your choice

Combine the asparagus, mushrooms, tamari, and oil in a large bowl and toss to combine; set aside.

Cook asparagus and mushrooms until asparagus is crisp-tender and mushrooms are browned and tender. (You can either grill them on a panini grill set on high, or spread them over a baking sheet and roast in a preheated 350 degrees F (180C) oven for 3 to 5 minutes.) Set aside.

TO ASSEMBLE THE SALAD:
Place cabbage in a large bowl. Around the edge, arrange carrot, edamame, corn, tomatoes, kohlrabi, red pepper, and avocado. On top, in the middle, place the cooked asparagus and mushrooms.

Serve with dressing.

*If you can't find kohlrabi, just substitute broccoli stems, jicama, or even chopped cucumber - you just want something light and crunchy.
