This category of dishes accompanies the menu of each country and is present on everyday and festive tables. We are talking about salads that can diversify any, even the simplest and most bland side dish. Their composition and degree of complexity depend only on the preferences of the cook, so the recipe can be very budget-friendly, low-calorie and quick.

How to make a simple salad

Dishes of this type are primarily characterized by the ease of their creation. No three-hour cooking of meat, although heat treatment may be present, and no scrupulous cutting of complex shapes from products. In addition, a simple and tasty salad mainly does not involve exotic ingredients, so it is also inexpensive. However, even a salad for a birthday or other holiday can be called “simple”, so you don’t need to think that this is only a dish for an everyday table.

Hastily

Lack of time can manifest itself both on weekdays and on holidays, so every housewife needs to know how to come up with a simple salad in a hurry. Pro Tips:

Use canned food. You don’t have to think about how to cook tuna, salmon or squid - they can go straight to the plate. This is also very important for legumes (beans, peas). Professionals assure that this is the easiest way to create a delicious salad in a couple of minutes, even for the New Year's table.
Add smoked meats, sausages, sausages, ham - no need to cook them.
Try to select components so that they do not require heat treatment, and the salad itself does not need to be infused.
Don't forget about accents. Roasted nuts, crackers, unsweetened berries - products that will benefit even the simplest composition.

On every day

It is very difficult to prepare complex dishes on a daily basis, especially for a modern woman who has almost no free minute. Simple salads for every day, which are mainly based on fresh vegetables and/or fruits, help her out. It’s healthy, tasty, easy, great for helping you lose weight or maintain your weight/volume at the current level.

Instant cooking

If you're looking for holiday appetizer recipes that won't require you to spend all day in the kitchen, pros say focus on presentation. Even the quickest salads from simple ingredients can be served in such a way that no one will guess how many minutes and pennies were spent on their creation. Regarding design, there are several particularly successful options that always work:

Unusual "dishes". Quotes are used because not all serving methods involve salad bowls, bowls, etc. You can offer such simple salads in portions as an appetizer, placing them on tartlets or halves of vegetables with strong walls - cucumbers, zucchini, peppers, etc.
Playing with color. Yellow peppers, green cucumbers and red tomatoes are simple ingredients, no heat treatment, but what a bright traffic light in a plate!
Submission form. In transparent containers, you can lay out the components of the snack in layers, on a flat dish - in a clear shape, similar to the Pomegranate Bracelet or Sunflower.

Cheap salads are the most in demand today. After all, every second housewife joins her family in both hot dishes and salad. But not everyone can afford to prepare snacks from sterlet, shrimp and beef every day.

There is another advantage of such salads: almost all of them are very simple to prepare. If you mix several types of vegetables and season with oil, the salads will also turn out healthy. By the way, adding a small amount of chicken breast to the appetizer will not hit the family budget too much.

And I can advise novice housewives - if you want to prepare a salad, but it contains too much chicken breast or sausage, and there is no money for them, then you can do it in several ways - either reduce the amount of an expensive ingredient, or replace it with a cheaper one. Beef can be replaced with pork if all the veins and fat are removed. Smoked sausage can be replaced with boiled sausage or even store-bought lard. Thus, there are much more options for preparing a cheap salad than we think.

The most delicious salads are the main “combat unit” in the arsenal of cold appetizers for any housewife. You just need to choose the right food and prepare it correctly.

The birthplace of dishes from the “fruits of the sea” (frutti del mare) was sunny Italy, which gave the world wonderful recipes for a variety of salads.

Ingredients:

Cherry tomatoes - 100 g;
shrimp (preferably large and peeled) - from 20 pcs.;
Parmesan cheese - 50 g;
arugula - 500 g;
avocado;
olive oil - 100 ml;
sea salt, French herbs.

Cooking method:

1. To create an excellent taste and beautiful appearance of the food, it is best to use tiger shrimp. They can be distinguished by their characteristic black stripes that do not disappear after cleaning and heat treatment. Place the decapod crustaceans on the grill or frying pan, fry for no more than two minutes, place in a plate with a mixture prepared from olive oil and Provençal herbs.
2. Wash the arugula thoroughly, dry it with paper towels, carefully tear it with your hands, and place it in a salad bowl.
3. Add halves of miniature tomatoes to the herb and sprinkle the dish with balsamic vinegar. Gently mix the products, place Parmesan cheese on top, divided into thin slices. We complete the composition with cooled shrimp.
4. Pour the oil over the dish in which the fried sea creatures were lying.

Salads, especially green ones, with the presence of delicate herbs and vegetables, do not add salt at all (season with lemon juice) or do it directly when serving food. We take this rule into account so that the products do not become watery and limp.

In the Italian version, the most delicious shrimp appetizer consists of tiger (or other species) mixed with chopped pasta and tomato sauce, lemon juice and zest, onions and peppers. Amazingly delicious!

2. Cool the chicken breasts boiled in salted water and chop them into strips. We arrange the cheese in the same form, and then the mushrooms, removed from the marinade and dried with paper napkins.
