Fresh Green Salad



                                Fresh green salad that is fresh literally in all senses. A three ingredient dish that is all fuss free. This recipe (if it is to be called a recipe) is my aunt's. She made it while she stayed at my place and given how much I love capsicum this became my favorite.

                                It is one of those salad dishes which you can make up at last moment and when served at table the color quotient gives you brownie points!  All you need for the salad is capsicum or green bell pepper, spring onions and cabbage.



                                I have already discussed the health benefits of capsicum in Carrot capsicum rice and now speaking of cabbage and spring onions they both are an excellent source of Vitamin K and Vitamin C.Cabbage is also a very good source of potassium, manganese, dietary fiber, vitamin B1, folate and copper. The sulphur compounds in spring onion help in reducing risk of coronary heart diseases and colon cancer and also lowers blood sugar levels.

Ingredients:

  1. Green cabbage - 1 cup
  2. Spring onions - 1/2 cup
  3. Capsicum - 1 no.

Method:

  • Shred the cabbage and rinse it very well. Drain the water.
  • Chop the bulbs of the spring onion finely and cut the greens lengthwise.
  • Slice the capsicum lengthwise.
  • Toss all of them together in a bowl and serve!

You can increase or decrease the amount of veggies as per your liking. Just remember to take a snap and share it on our facebook page before serving it.
