Ingredients
Dressing
- 1 cup Olive oil (1/2 light, 1/2 EVOO if desired)
- 1/3 cup white balsamic
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup loose packed basil
- 1/2 cup loosely packed mint
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Salad
- 4-6 eggs
- 4-6 oz pancetta, diced
- 1/2-1lb asparagus, woody ends trimmed
- salt and pepper to taste
- 6 oz Taylor Farms Organic Wellness Blend
- 1 avocado
- 4 oz crumbled goat cheese
- 4 watermelon radishes, thinly sliced
- 1 cup sugar snap peas
- 1/4 cup sunflower seeds, roasted, salted
- 2 tbsp chives, minced
Directions
- Blend all ingredients for the dressing in a blender until smooth. Store in an airtight container until ready to use. Keep in refrigerator up to 2 weeks.
- Cover the eggs with cool water by 1 inch. Slowly bring water to a boil over medium-high heat. When the water has reached a boil, cover with a tight fitting lid and remove the pan from the heat. Let sit 12 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking.
- In a medium sized pan, sauté the pancetta until crispy. Drain onto a paper towel lined plate, reserving 2 teaspoons of fat in the pan. Place the asparagus into the still hot pan of pancetta fat. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Sauté until tender, roughly 5-10 minutes. Set aside. Crack and peel the hard boiled eggs, slice them and set aside.
- Spread the Organic Wellness blend Taylor Farm’s lettuce on a large platter. Top it in sections with the pancetta, asparagus, avocado, goat cheese, radishes, and peas. Sprinkle with chives and sunflower seeds. Serve alongside the herby dressing.
