We enjoy salads all year round. We use a wide range of
ingredients, trying to incorporate seasonal produce into the salad
as much as possible.
A lovely crispy, crunchy salad can be
eaten as a meal in itself or eaten as a side dish with the main
meal. Salads are very high in anti oxidants and therefore are
extremely good for us if we value our health and longevity. Anti oxidants are thought to be effective in helping to
prevent cancer, heart disease, and stroke.
Salads Don't Just Mean Lettuce And Tomato
In our salads we use edible flowers, nuts,
beans, seeds and fruit. We try to make the salads as colourful
as possible and this is not difficult with the bright colours of
most salad ingredients. One thing we have to be careful of, though, is that we don't
overload our salads with dressings and mayonnaises. These can
be sometimes be very unhealthy and we can end up defeating the
purpose of having a salad. Enjoy these and then go on to create
your own healthy salads: |
