Ingredients

1 ounce young spinach leaves (1 cup, firmly packed)
2 ounces parsley, stems removed (1 cup, firmly packed)
2 medium cloves garlic
2 ounces cilantro (1 1/2 cups, firmly packed)
1 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander seed
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 cup light mayonnaise
1/2 cup nonfat plain yogurt
Salt to taste

Steps:

Bring enough water to a boil to cover the spinach and parsley, and blanch them for 5 seconds. Drain, and run under cold water; squeeze dry in a dish towel.
In a food processor with the motor running, put the garlic through the feed tube, and mince. Add the spinach, parsley and cilantro, and process to chop. Add the coriander, lemon juice, mayonnaise and yogurt, and process until the greens are well blended and the mayonnaise is a bright green. Season with salt. Chill at least a couple of hours or overnight. Use about 2 tablespoons for each serving of salmon.
