Are you bored of your diet and tired of eating the same old lettuce and tomato salad every day?
If you have a love for fresh and healthy salads, here are some ideas to get you started. You should also check out this book on how to make green smoothies for more ideas. Salads can be found in almost any cuisine--Italian, Greek, and Mexican--so there's definitely a style in which to suit everyone's tastes!
Salad is an easy way to diversify your diet with tons of nutrients. They are also a great source of fiber, which helps with digestion. And if that wasn't enough, they can make the perfect meal for when you're feeling under the weather or don't have much time in the kitchen. Salads are a great way to eat vegetables, even if you aren't a fan of them. Add in some proteins and some fruits, and you've got yourself a healthy meal.
So what exactly is a salad, anyway? It's simply your choice of salad greens and other ingredients like fruits, veggies, meats/seafood/cheese/nuts/dried fruit etc. Tossed together with your dressing of choice--usually olive oil or vinegar--and voila!
This book covers:
· Mixed greens
· Caesar salad
· Garden salad
· Fruit salad
· Caprese salad
· Out of season salad
· Classic salad
· Tuna or chicken salad
· Chef salad
· Antipasto salad
And much more!
You can choose from an array of different salads based on the season in which you're eating it. In the summer you will want fresh greens (like lettuce), whereas in the winter months you might need something more hearty to get by.
