We love using kohlrabi in salads. The light green or purple veggie looks like a cross between a turnip and a fennel bulb and tastes like celery root or a mild turnip.
Ingredients
1 cup plain whole-milk yogurt
1/3 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
1/4 cup avocado oil or canola oil
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 garlic clove, pressed
Fine sea salt
8 cups coarsely chopped romaine lettuce (about 8 large leaves)
1 1/2 cups 1/2-inch cubes peeled jicama
2 small carrots, thinly sliced into rounds
1 avocado, halved, pitted, peeled, sliced
1 cup sliced celery
1 cup 1/2-inch cubes peeled kohlrabi or peeled broccoli stems
3/4 cup canned garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained
3/4 cup halved pitted Kalamata olives
1/2 cup thinly sliced radishes
1/2 cup roasted sunflower seeds
Directions
Whisk first 5 ingredients in small bowl. Season dressing to taste with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Toss lettuce and next 8 ingredients in large bowl. Add dressing and toss to coat. Divide salad among plates; sprinkle with sunflower seeds.
