Ingredients
  

Salad:

  • 14 ounce can artichoke hearts cut in half or quartered if large
  • 1/2 cup mushrooms sliced
  • 1 cup pea pods
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds toasted

Dressing:

  • 1/2 cup half & half or vegan substitute
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 Tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dill
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Combine the dressing ingredients and whisk or shake to blend.
  • Rinse and drain the artichoke hearts.  Remove any tough outer leaves and cut into quarters if needed.
  • Blanch the snow peas in boiling water for 30-60 seconds, then immediately plunge into cold water. Drain and remove the stings (see Tips and FAQs above if you’ve never done this before). Slice the mushrooms.
  • Combine the artichoke hearts, pea pods and mushrooms, then toss with some of the dressing (I usually use about 1/3 to ½ of the dressing and save the rest).  Sprinkle with the sliced almonds.

Notes

The actual calorie count is probably lower since there is likely to be leftover dressing (and run off).
