Description

This fun and flavorful salad combines crispy potato chips, fresh greens, and a creamy tangy dressing for a crunchy, creamy bite that’s full of surprises.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups potato chips, roughly crushed
  • 4 cups mixed greens (arugula, spinach, mesclun)
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup fresh herbs (parsley, dill, chives)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the greens, red onion, and herbs.
  3. Pour the dressing over the greens and gently toss to coat evenly.
  4. Just before serving, add the crushed chips and fold them gently into the salad to maintain their crunch.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, then serve immediately.

Notes

  • Add chips at the last moment to keep them crispy.
  • Use kettle-style chips for extra crunch.
  • Customize the salad with your favorite herbs and greens.
  • A splash of water or lemon can loosen thick dressing.
