Method

Begin by preparing your ingredients. Rinse and drain the black beans, set aside. Thinly slice radishes and chop the parsley. Blanch the broccoli florets in boiling water for 2 minutes, then shock in ice water to keep their bright green color.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mixed greens, sliced radishes, blanched broccoli, and black beans.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, za'atar spice blend, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss everything together until the salad is evenly coated.
Serve the salad in bowls, garnished with fresh parsley and additional cracked black pepper if desired. Enjoy immediately!

Notes

This salad is a fantastic way to incorporate more vegetables into your meals. You can easily swap out the greens based on what you have on hand or what's in season. For an extra protein boost, consider adding grilled chicken or chickpeas. If you have leftover salad, store it in the fridge, but best enjoyed fresh. The flavors meld beautifully, so it's also great as a next-day lunch! Feel free to add a sprinkle of nuts or seeds on top for another layer of texture. Happy cooking!
