Following a healthy diet demands, regular intake of fruits and vegetables, and a salad is a great way to do that. Keep reading for tips on how to make the best salad you can.
Rub the inside of the bowl with garlic
Garlic is highly recommended (as an ingredient) for salad dressing but if you add too much, it can be overwhelming. Combat this by rubbing cut garlic on the inside of the bowl. This creates a subtle taste without coming off as overpowering.
DIY Dressing
Salad dressing from the store is convenient, but they contain several unhealthy ingredients and sugar. You can make a homemade vinaigrette using just the ingredients you already have in the kitchen. It will be healthier and you can keep costs down. Ingredients you can use include mustard, honey, vinegar, and olive oil.
Fruit Adds Sweetness
Fruit adds a sweeter taste to your salad and is a great way to make a salad interesting.
Add Grain
Salads can sometimes seem like they don't fill you up. Adding a couple of spoons of grain can help you feel full after a salad lunch.
