Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine the bell pepper, red onion, grape tomatoes, spinach, Persian cucumbers, green onions, and chickpeas.
  • To make the dressing, add the coconut milk, olive oil, avocado, fresh basil, fresh parsley, green onion, lemon juice, salt, and garlic to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  • If you'd like a thinner dressing, blend in 1–2 tablespoons of water until it reaches your desired consistency. For a richer, creamier dressing, leave it as is.
  • Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until everything is evenly coated. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to enjoy.
