Vitamin salad made from fresh vegetables, herbs and squid is an excellent dish that can not only satisfy your hunger, but also take care of your figure. The main gustatory and aesthetic decoration of this dish is considered to be boiled squid rings with an unusual pink hue, which come into an original contrast with all the green ingredients.
