I’ve made this salad several times and it is always a hit. The only thing I do differently is add a bit more greens and toss all together with the dressing rather than layer the asparagus/pea mixture, the radishes, feta, avocado, pistachios, chickpeas, and herbs on top of the greens. Every time I make I’m asked to share the recipe.

Hi Karen, yep! The veggies might lose a little of their color after being mixed with the dressing, but they should still taste great. You could also just blanch them but not dress them ahead to keep them brighter.

Would it be ok to blanch the asparagus and mix with half the dressing and peas a day in advance ?

This was tasty but strangely time consuming between getting the skins off the chick peas to shelling the pistachios and chopping the ingredients. Definitely try to buy pistachio meats if you can, it will save 15 mins.

Hi Suzanna, I would prep the salad but wait to pour the dressing and slice the avocado until the morning. Hope that helps!

What can I prep the night before of this salad if I’m bringing it to a luncheon & need to dash out of the house early the next morning?
