This recipe has been tried and tested and is a phenomenal success with family and friends. My husband came up with this truly delicious recipe and we have been enjoying this crunchy goodness with almost every meal..
The secret of this recipe is that it consists of simple ingredients that come together beautifully and makes you feel you are part of something special. Truly! Every time I make this salad I feel like a gourmet chef! No kidding!
Recipe:
1 medium onion
2-3 cucumbers, peeled
1 Bartlett pear, cored
1 apple, cored
Vinaigrette:
5 pitted dates
1 Serrano pepper
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Lime Juice
Himalayan Salt (or normal salt)
Oregano (optional)
cilantro, finely chopped (optional)
Chop all vegetables and fruits and toss them together.
Be sure to add only crunchy vegetables and fruits to this salad. You may add raw mango, raw papaya, green/yellow/red pepper. You can roughly chop all the veggies/fruits, or slice them, or cube them.
Thinly slice the dates and serrano pepper and add to the mix. You can leave the jalapeno pepper out, but it provides the aroma and balances the acidity from lime juice and sweetness from the dates.
Drizzle generous amount of olive oil and squeeze a lime into the mix and sprinkle salt to taste.
Sprinkle some dry oregano and cilantro for flavor.
Toss everything together and the lovely crunchy salad is ready.
The vinaigrette gives a beautiful depth of flavors to the salad. And the healthy content leaves you feeling full. Hope this recipe becomes your go-to and has a place in your table like it is in mine.
