Ingredients
- 4 portobello mushroom caps, wiped clean and very thinly sliced
- 4 ribs celery and their green tops, thinly sliced on an angle
- Handful flat-leaf parsley, picked of stems but left whole
- 1 lemon (Heads up: you'll need lemon zest for the pesto later, so zest and reserve before you cut this lemon to juice it for this salad.)
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, eyeball it
- Coarse salt and black pepper
- A couple of handfuls shaved Parmiginao-Reggiano
Directions
Arrange the mushrooms and celery on a platter and scatter the parsley leaves around. Squeeze the lemon juice evenly over the platter then liberally drizzle the salad with extra-virgin olive oil, about 3 tablespoons. Season the salad with salt and lots of black pepper and toss with your finger tips to combine. Using a vegetable peeler, shave cheese and scatter a couple of handfuls Parmigiano-Reggiano over the salad.

An exciting alternative to regular salad! I love the mushrooms and the lemon gives it a nice kick!

I actually sauteed my mushrooms and red onions in butter (since I love sauteing anything in butter and someone commented earlier that portobello mushrooms can be carcinogenic if not cooked, added a little bit of spring greens and followed the rest of the recipe. The salad turned out exceptionally fabulous! I made a vegetable lentil soup and put some pesto on toasted baguette as a side and made it a light but satisfying dinner.

I made this salad to go along with an old family recipe for Hungarian vegetable soup. It was delicious, and the flavors were complementary to the rest of the meal. I did add in some fresh basil as I had it on hand, and it just added to the deliciousness! I will definitely make this again.
