When you’re on a diet, it’s crucial to eat healthy meals. This salad recipe is also excellent for the day after overeating, helping to refresh your system. We’ve prepared a simple and quick salad recipe for you. Enjoy a nourishing meal with ease!
Main Ingredients
- Mixed greens 80g (choose your favorite blend)
- Apple 1/4 (adds sweetness and crispness)
- 1 Hard-boiled egg (provides satiety and protein)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Start with your mixed greens. If you’re using a pre-packaged mix, measure out about 80g. Place the greens in a colander and rinse them thoroughly under cold running water several times to remove any dirt or debris. Gently pat them dry or use a salad spinner to ensure they are well-drained. Fresh greens are the foundation of a great salad!
Step 2
Thoroughly wash the apple. Since we’ll be eating it with the skin on, scrub it well with a soft brush, perhaps using a bit of baking soda or a splash of vinegar to ensure it’s impeccably clean.
Step 3
Keeping the skin on, core the apple and slice it into bite-sized pieces. Thin slices work beautifully in salads, blending well with other ingredients. For this recipe, about a quarter of an apple is perfect, providing a nice balance of sweetness and crunch.
Step 4
Peel and slice the hard-boiled egg. Arrange the washed and dried mixed greens on your plate. Artfully place the sliced apple and the egg slices over the greens. A visually appealing salad often tastes even better!
Step 5
Prepare your simple dressing. Extra virgin olive oil is not only beneficial for your health during a diet but is also known to support gut health and prevent constipation. Balsamic glaze offers a delightful tangy-sweet kick, so a little goes a long way in enhancing the salad’s flavor profile.
Step 6
Drizzle the 1 tablespoon of olive oil evenly over the salad ingredients. Finish with a light drizzle of balsamic glaze according to your preference. Your delicious and healthy diet salad is ready to be enjoyed! Dig in and savor this light, nourishing meal.
