Easy Mushroom Salad with Herbs
Description
Easy Mushroom Salad with Herbs starts by cleaning mushrooms and trimming their stems evenly before slicing them thinly. A dressing is prepared by mixing Greek yogurt with minced garlic and ginger, lemon juice for acidity, chopped parsley for herbal brightness, olive oil for richness, and seasoning with salt and black pepper.
The mushrooms are combined with the dressing just before serving and tossed well to evenly coat each slice. Finely snipped chives are sprinkled on top for added flavor and visual appeal. The salad remains crisp from the mushrooms but gains a creamy, tangy balance from the yogurt dressing. This preparation is quick and serves fresh, best consumed immediately.
To prevent discoloration if not serving immediately, a squeeze of lemon juice can be applied to the mushrooms, slowing browning and preserving the salad’s fresh appearance. It is a simple and light dish that benefits from fresh ingredients and herbs.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces mushrooms
- ¼ teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger minced
- ¾ cup Greek yogurt
- ½ lemon juiced
- 3 tablespoons parsley chopped
- salt
- black pepper
- 5 tablespoons olive oil
- ⅛ teaspoons chives finely snipped
Instructions
- Clean the mushroom and cut the stem to be even with the cap. Finely slices them either with a mandolin or knife.

- In a plate or large low rim bowl place the mushrooms and add the yogurt mixture to it. Mix well and serve immediately and sprinkle the chives over the dish.
