Do you know any healthy salad recipes? What ingredient do I need to make it? from Stuart Barnett
Hello everyone, my name is Leo and I’m 22 years old. I promise that’s my last question about healthy food! (for today). I would like to add some salads to my nutrition plan. Most of them are tasty and it does not take a lot of time to cook it. I like many salads but I do not know which of them are healthy, so I decided to ask you again, guys. Do you know any healthy salad recipes? What ingredients do I need to make it? Which one is the most delicious, in your opinion? Hope you will help me, I’m waiting for your answers. Thank you very much again!

Hello Leo and thank you for your question.
Salads it's really the best meal, that mankind ever invented. It is really quick. easy to make, full of vitamins and tasty. The best combination, isn't it?
So, let's see which salad recipe I can advise you because I know a lot of them. You should make a note, that if you want to make a healthy salad it should be without mayonnaise even if it is homemade. Just forget! And of course, forget about seasoning and souses. You know, bought at the supermarket and made at home with adding some water. Really don't do this. Instead of all these things take Greek yogurt or olive oil with lemon.
I think, that for you the best salad recipe will be that one easy to make, full of such ingredients which help you stay active and full of energy during the day. What am I talking about?
It's really good salat. which you think do not ever try. What is interesting, this salad is very popular in Eastern Europe. Are you excited? The name of this salad is vinegret. The name goes from the French "vinaigre", which in translation means "vinegar". There is even recipe of this salad for losing weight.
So what do you need for this salad?
– 3 carrots
– 4 beats ( you can take already cooked)
– 4 small potatoes
– 2 pickles
– 1 onion
– olive oil
– salt and pepper
How to prepare?
1. Boil water and put all veggies for cooking.
2. Cut all of the ingredients in cubs.
3. Mix everything and add pepper and salt.
Bon Appetit!
