Green salads are an excellent way to start a meal and prepare the palate for the main dish, I like to use green vegetables such as lettuce, have many health benefits as well as nutritional value and are a refreshing way to start a meal and with Variety of dressings each is very different from the other in flavor.
I recommend using fresh ingredients for better results. This time I bring an exotic and tropical dressing prepared with concentrated passion fruit, mustard and sweet honey.
INGREDIENTS
Preparation time: 10 minutes. Serves 4 people
5 leaves of fresh lettuce
2 tomatoes cut into thin slices
½ striped carrot
½ onion cut into thin slices
FOR THE DRESSING
2 tablespoons of olive oil.
1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons cream cheese or yogurt
4 tablespoons of passion fruit concentrate
2 teaspoons of dijon mustard
3 tablespoons of honey or sugar
Cracked black pepper, salt.
TO PREPARE THE DRESSING:
Mix all the ingredients in a dressing mixing bottle/shaker. Make sure all ingredients are fully incorporated. If it requires more salt or pepper now is the time. Remember that the secret to a delicious dressing is to add 2 portions of oil to a portion of vinegar and use fresh and quality products.
PRESENTATION OF GREEN SALAD
- Wash the lettuce well and place it in a bowl.
- Cut the tomato and onion into thin wheels and place them on top of the lettuce.
- Grate the carrot and place it on the tomatoes and onions.
- Then bathe with a little dressing and get ready to enjoy a refreshing and delicious salad with very few calories.
If you decide that this salad will be part of the main dish you can combine it with tuna, fish or grilled chicken.
There are many delicious and different dressings that I will present in my next posts.
