Roasted Cauli & Chickpea Salad

I might as well call is a NO-BISSLI salad at this point! But sadly, I’m taking a break from trashing up my salads with nosh but I still need that crunch – so I roasted up some chickpeas and I don’t miss the Bissli…that much.

Bissli Pizza Salad

I could say that I’m running out of Bissli salad ideas – but that just doesn’t happen to me. Give me an ingredient and a challenge and I’m all over it! Especially when it’s one of my favorite snacks – BISSLI! The pizza flavor might not be my favorite, but I can’t get enough of the crunch – so I figured why not coat some  actual cheese into pizza “croutons” – almost like one of those goat cheese salads, you know?

But then I thought – I really need something acidic to cut through all that heavy fried cheese – and I made these insane marinated onions that were so good I wanted to drink the sauce! And it doubles as the dressing too! Throw it all over some arugula with parmesan and you’ve got a salad worthy of your Chanukah party! Happy frying!

Bissli Pizza Salad & Dressing

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp tomato paste
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
Juice of ½ lemon
3 frozen basil cubes
1 clove garlic
½ tsp dried oregano
2 tbsp honey
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 small red onion, thinly sliced into half moons
7oz arugula
2 tbsp capers
Parmesan cheese, for finishing

Blend the salad dressing and pour over the onions. Set aside to marinate while you make the cheese croutons.

BISSLI PIZZA CROUTONS
1 bag pizza bissli
1/4 cup flour
1 egg
10 cheese balls
Salt and pepper, to taste

Method:

Blitz the bissli into crumbs and transfer to a shallow bowl. Whisk an egg and season with salt and pepper. Add flour to a Ziploc and season with salt and pepper. Add cheese to the flour and shake to coat. Working with one wheel of cheese ar a time, shake off excess flour, dip in egg and then Bissli crumbs. Fry unti crispy, about 1 minute per side (if you fry for too long the cheese will ooze out).

To assemble the salad, layer arugula, marinated onions with some of the salad dressing, capers, croutons and Parmesan cheese.

Italian Antipasto Salad

BBQ Bissli has always been my favorite flavor – aside for the taste, I loved the twisty texture that I would eat in layers! I even made a homemade version (using dried pasta) in my cookbook, Totally Kosher (fans say it’s even better than the original!).

When I thought about how to use this flavor in a fun away, my mind went to ITALIAN ANTIPASTO SALAD – a mix of salumi and briny ingredients + corkscrew pasta that makes a great meal in a bowl. Of course I used the Bissli in place of the pasta here (same shape, same mouthfeel!) and the result is so satisfying!

Kitchen Sink Chicken Caesar Salad

I can eat chicken Caesar salad every day of the summer, and I always make it a little different, depending on what’s in my fridge. No chicken? leftover meat or burgers will do! No lettuce? iceberg can work! The rest is up to the produce bin – shaved raw corn (fave!), snap peas, cabbage, kohlrabi, all the crunch and lets not forget the croutons! I used roasted chickpeas here cuz YUMMMM but whatever’s in the pantry is up for grabs – bottom-of-the-bag pretzels, crackers, chips – all fair game! So open your fridge and make it your own!
