Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Best Green Herb Salad
- For a more intense flavor, let the herbs sit in the vinaigrette for 10-15 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld.
- Add other fresh herbs to customize your salad! Basil, mint, or parsley would all complement the cilantro beautifully.
- Toasted nuts, such as walnuts or pecans, add a delicious crunch. Add them just before serving.
- If you prefer a creamier dressing, incorporate a tablespoon of plain Greek yogurt or sour cream into the vinaigrette.
