If you're a pickle lover (and come on, who isn't?), this tangy Dill Pickle Salad is going to change your life! It's easy to make, super nutritious, and just bursting with incredible flavor.
This is a copycat version of Taylor Farms Dill Pickle Salad which is available in most supermarkets and beloved nationwide. I've added some tasty twists to my at-home version that make it both more nutritious and more delicious.
First, I swapped the traditional croutons with these amazing homemade crispy chickpea 'croutons' that are packed with fiber. Then, for my dressing, I used plain Greek yogurt as my base instead of mayonnaise, sour cream, or buttermilk. And I also added REAL pickles - one ingredient that the store-bought version is seriously lacking.
The vegetables in this salad are absolutely packed with crunch, color, and nutrition. Kale, green cabbage, red cabbage, cauliflower, and radishes all combine to make this salad hearty, healthy, and oh-so-satisfying.
