Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a blender or food processor, combine plain Greek yogurt, fresh lemon juice, mustard, extra virgin olive oil, fresh mint leaves, fresh parsley leaves, and fresh oregano leaves. Blend for about 30 seconds until smooth and creamy. Stop to scrape down the sides if needed, then season with coarse salt and ground black pepper to taste. Set aside the dressing while you prepare the salad.
  2. In a large bowl, add the super greens mix and chopped kale, ensuring they are well combined. Then, gently fold in the sliced strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries, allowing their vibrant colors to shine. Add the pistachios and pepitas for that delightful crunch. As you mix, look for an even distribution of berries and greens for a beautiful final presentation in your superfood berry salad.
  3. Drizzle the creamy lemon herb dressing generously over the salad mixture, being careful not to drown the fresh ingredients. Using salad tongs or two large spoons, toss everything gently to combine, ensuring every berry and green is coated with the dressing.
  4. Transfer the delightful superfood berry salad onto a serving platter or individual bowls for an appealing presentation. Just before serving, sprinkle some extra ground black pepper on top for an added zing if desired.
