vegan + gluten free tiktok green goddess salad (but better!)
Ok so first off, this recipe was clearly inspired by Baked by Melissa’s green salad which BLEW up on TikTok last summer. But I’ve adapted it so it’s boiled down to the essential ingredients with some updates to make it even better than it already was. Seriously, if you haven’t tried this yet you need to go to the store and buy what you need to make this TODAY. It’s that good 🙂
I love having this with a side of homemade tortilla chips so I’ve also included that recipe below!
