Instructions
Step 1
Make a summer vegetable salad. It will take you no more than ten minutes to make and serve. Wash tomatoes, cucumbers, peel carrots.
Step 2
Take a deep bowl and add lettuce to it. Cut cucumbers, tomatoes and carrots into large pieces and send to a bowl.
Step 3
Season salad with olive oil, add salt and juice of half a lemon. Stir well, place on plates and serve. The combination of fresh vegetables and an enjoyable dressing will make your quick salad tasty and healthy.
Step 4
Make a cabbage salad. For it you will need half a head of cabbage, herbs and oil. A simple set of foods can turn into a healthy salad. Remove the top leaves from the head, cut it in half. Cut one part into two more, chop it finely and put in a bowl.
Step 5
Wash and chop the dill or parsley and add to the cabbage. If it is old, then it should be crumpled with clean hands. This will help it soften and release some juice. Young cabbage should not be crumpled. Salt the salad, add olive oil and lemon juice. Stir the contents of the bowl and serve.
Step 6
You can diversify such a salad by adding cucumbers or carrots. Grate the carrots on a coarse grater, cut the cucumbers into oblong strips.
Step 7
Make the classic Italian Caprese salad. Wash the tomatoes and basil herbs. Cut the tomatoes into half-centimeter circles and place them on a flat plate.
Step 8
Remove the mozzarella from the packaging, drain the liquid. Cut the cheese into slices the same way. If you buy mini mozzarella balls, which are small balls, you can put them whole on top of the tomatoes.
Step 9
Chop the basil leaves and sprinkle them over the salad. Top with olive oil and sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper. Place the top of the basil sprig in the center of the plate.
