This hearty, flavor-packed chopped salad is inspired by the iconic original from The Gladly in Phoenix. Layered with arugula, smoked salmon, Israeli couscous, sweet corn, tomatoes, and salty pepitas, it’s finished with a punchy buttermilk-herb dressing that ties everything together.

  • 1/2 cup toasted pepitas
  • 1/4 cup grated aged Asiago cheese
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • Juice of one lemon
  • 12 basil leaves
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
