Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Cremini mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 medium Garlic clove
- 100 grams Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 small Red onion
- 100 grams Mixed salad greens
- 150 grams Cherry tomatoes
Instructions
Clean the cremini mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Slice them thinly.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until they are golden and tender. Remove from heat and let them cool.
In a mixing bowl, combine the lemon juice with minced garlic (use a garlic press or finely chop the garlic).
Add the Greek yogurt to the bowl and mix well to create the creamy dressing base.
Finely chop the fresh dill and mix it into the yogurt dressing. Season with black pepper to taste.
Thinly slice the red onion and halve the cherry tomatoes.
In a large salad bowl, combine the sautéed mushrooms, sliced red onion, and halved cherry tomatoes.
Add the mixed salad greens to the bowl.
Pour the creamy yogurt dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to combine everything.
Serve the salad immediately or chill in the refrigerator for up to 30 minutes to allow the flavors to develop further before serving.
