They are a burst of health and happiness on a plate - and the best part is that you can eat guilt-free! We all love salads, don't we? Here's what all ingredients you can add to your regular salad and make it interesting!
Go nutty
Add that crunch and sweetness to your regular salad with a hearty handful of nuts - get creative and combine almonds with spinach, the creaminess of the spinach and the earthy crunch of the almonds spells divine! While apples and walnuts go hand-in-hand, try teaming up your walnuts with cucumber for an extra bite. Jalapenos teamed with raisins and cashews is great, taste and texture wise, the spicy hit of the jalapenos meets the gooey sweetness of the raisins topped with some cashews for neutrality and balance!
Get seedy
Seeds - who knew that bird food would end up being so delish, not to mention healthy! With their natural oils, seeds have their unique taste. Try dry roasting some sunflower, pine and pumpkin seeds and add this to your regular lettuce salad. Even your fruit salads when topped with some salted seeds taste oodles better and get a salty twist. They not just lend your salad an extra crunch, but end up adding a mild fragrant flavour to it.
Dress well
Another thing you could get creative with is dressing. Make your own kitchen inspired dressing - add up things you like from the pantry and watch the magic happen in a bowl. You could try mixing some cool yogurt with crushed mustard seeds and salt and chilli powder to dress crisp green veggies. If you like Indian dressing, give your salad a desi tadka by heating up some olive oil, throw in a little cumin, whole red chillies and ajwain and drizzle atop your veggies. The intensity of the cumin takes your salad to whole new level as the chillies and ajwain lend it a different flavour.
So go ahead and get creative with your salads.
