Israeli chopped salad
I grew up eating Israeli chopped salad—it’s a staple in my kitchen and one of my favorite things to make every single day. It’s simple, fresh, and absolutely delicious. My kids love it even more than I do!
Ingredients:
-
3 bell peppers (one of each color)
-
4 cucumbers
-
3 tomatoes
-
Green onion (or regular onion, but green is my favorite!)
-
1 bunch of parsley, cilantro, or both (dill is amazing too!)
-
3 teaspoons olive oil
-
Juice of 1 lemon
-
Salt & pepper to taste
-
Tahini drizzle—A MUST! (Any flavor will be delicious!)
Instructions:
-
Chop all the veggies into small, even pieces and combine them in a large mixing bowl.
-
Dress it up by adding olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
-
Finish with tahini drizzle—it’s the best part!
-
Enjoy immediately while everything is crisp and fresh.
Tips for the Best Chopped Salad:
✅ Use green tomatoes if you can—they add an incredible flavor twist!
✅ Go for green onions instead of regular ones. Slice them down the middle (like I show in the video) to bring out their full flavor—so good!
✅ Dress the salad right before eating. If the veggies sit in the dressing too long, they’ll get soggy. You want it crispy and fresh!
✅ Tahini drizzle on top is a must! The most delicious combination ever.
This salad is bright, crunchy, and full of flavor. Once you try it, you’ll be making it every day too!
