Broccoli salad with sprouted wild rice and citrusy avocado & basil dressing by the first mess
Serves: 6-8
Dressing:
- 1 medium, ripe avocado, pitted and peeled
- juice of 1 orange
- juice of 1 lemon
- juice of 1 lime
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp agave nectar
- 1 small jalapeno, seeds and veins removed (optional)
- 1 cup lightly packed basil leaves
- salt and pepper
- 3 tbsp grapeseed oil
Salad:
- 1 bunch of broccoli, large woody stems removed
- 1/2 cup wild rice, soaked, sprouted and drained
- 1/2 cup golden raisins
- 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
- salt and pepper
- 6-7 chive blossoms, broken up into smaller pieces/petals
Make the dressing: Combine all of the dressing ingredients except for the basil and oil in a blender. Blend on medium-high speed until a smooth and creamy mixture is achieved. You may have to stop the motor and push the avocado down a couple times. Add the basil leaves and oil to the blender pitcher. Put the lid on and slowly bring the speed up to medium-high. Once you have a creamy consistency similar to mayonnaise, you’re set. It should taste sweet, tangy and rich. Adjust seasoning to your liking and set aside.
Chop the broccoli into very small florets. They shouldn’t be bigger than the end of your thumb (see photo above). Place florets into a large bowl with the sprouted rice, raisins and sunflower seeds. Pour about 3/4 of the dressing over the broccoli mixture. Give the salad a good seasoning with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Place salad into your serving bowl of choice. Garnish with chive blossoms and a sprig of basil if you like.
