To prepare the ingredients, quarter the potatoes (unpeeled). Trim and halve the green beans. Roughly chop the avocado, mint, and tarragon. Zest and juice the lemon.
Place the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to the boil and cook for 15 minutes or until tender. Place the green beans in the base of a colander and drain the potatoes over the beans (the heat of the potatoes will soften them).
Meanwhile, make the green goddess dressing. Place a quarter of the avocado, the yoghurt, mint, tarragon, half of the lemon zest and half of the lemon juice in a blender and blend until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. If you don’t have a blender you can just stir finely chopped herbs through the yoghurt, avocado and lemon.
Combine the potatoes, beans, almonds and remaining avocado in a large bowl. Stir through the green goddess dressing to coat well.
Divide baby spinach between bowls and top with the Green Goddess Salad. Serve with remaining lemon zest and juice if you like.
