HEALTHY GARDEN SALAD

I have kept this healthy salad recipe for years and prepared it many times with a combination of ingredients [not all the ingredients listed here].  It is up to you to combine any of the ingredients, most important is the Mayo Dressing.  The portion of Mayo Dressing also depends on how much of the vegetables you used.  Just adjust accordingly and it is still good so long as you taste it before serving.
This is a healthy salad for lunch or when you prefer having something light for a meal.
Ingredients
150 gm purple cabbage - shredded
1 small zucchini - shredded
Salad leaves - shredded
10-12 cherry tomatoes - halved
some French Beans - cut 1 inch length - blanched and cooled - optional
some cauliflower - cut florets - blanched and cooled - optional
Mayo Dressing
100 gm mayonnaise
Juice of 1 lemon
2-3 tbsp honey
some chopped garlic
1-2 tbsp olive oil
salt to taste
  1. Combine all the ingredients for the dressing and chill in the fridge.
  2. Combine all the salad ingredients in a bowl and toss with the dressing just before serving.

Hi Phong Hong, this is a quick to prepare recipe. Goes well with fried meat or fish.
