5 healthy delicious and vitamin salads. Master class 32

A vitamin salad with the right combination of ingredients and dressing can become not just a snack, but also a full-fledged dish for lunch or dinner. 5 healthy delicious and vitamin salads.

Any vegetables and green salads should be washed and dried before being added to the dish. Excess moisture not only repels sauces and dressings but can also worsen the taste. If you mix fresh vegetables and herbs with warm ingredients on one plate. For example, boiled potatoes, fried bacon, meat, or fish, then you need to serve such a dish immediately — fresh ingredients lose both taste and appearance from the temperature. To mix green salad, choose a bowl whose volume is at least twice the volume of the salad itself. The less the greens and vegetable pulp are pressed, the fresher they will remain.

The study found that eating an average of five servings of fruits and vegetables a day is linked to a reduced risk of death from heart and respiratory diseases. Eating more fruit is also associated with a lower risk of cancer.

For adults, the recommended daily amount is 1.5 to 2 cups of fruit and 2 to 3 cups of vegetables.”
