ingredients

For the dressing
4 hatch chiles, roasted, peeled, stems and seeds removed, chopped
2 cucumbers, peeled, seeded and chopped
¹⁄₂ cup fresh cilantro
4 green onions, chopped
¹⁄₃ cup olive oil
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 cup plain yogurt
For the salad
1 mild hatch chile, seeded and chopped
1 large granny smith apple, chopped
1 cup chopped jicama, skin removed
2 tangerines or 2 oranges, sectioned
4 cups mixed salad greens
¹⁄₂ cup pine nuts or 1/2 cup sesame seeds

directions

For the dressing, place roasted chiles, cucumbers, cilantro, green onions, olive oil, vinegar and garlic into a food processor and puree until smooth.
Add yogurt and mix well.
Chill in the fridge for at least one hour.
In a large bowl, toss Hatch chile, apple, jicama, tangerines and salad greens.
Add just enough dressing to coat salad and toss.
Top with nuts or sesame seeds.
To roast the peppers, either put them under the broiler for a few minutes, watching until they begin to char. Or toast them on a stick over a gas burner. Once they're charred, popping them into a paper bag for a few minutes will make them easy to peel. "Cook time" listed is actually chilling time for the dressing.

AND that is the end of this. If the phone doesn't ring? It's me. If you are looking to ask me a question? I'm not here. I won't answer. I do not assure you that the ingredients, amounts or even the directions in any recipe under my two accounts are correct due to the bad directional pointer in the database that is causing problems with the amounts or ingredients. I will also NOT assure you they are correct when the site claims they are fixed. Use at your own risk. They will be correct on my site. End of story. Sigh..
