I’m still trying to gain my footing from all the holiday overeating so my body just craved a salad. But I decided to fancy stuff up a bit and throw together some greens, fruits and nuts, which I think is always a good idea in a salad as it gives an interesting mix of textures and flavors. Plus, plain salads are pretty boring and generally leave me unimpressed.

INGREDIENTS:

(Yields 2 servings / EUR per serving / 1.72 EUR for all)

2 cups shredded purple cabbage (0.27 EUR)

2 cups arugula (0.40 EUR)

2 tbsp olive oil (0.09 EUR)

2 tbsp lemon juice (0.13 EUR)

Good pinch of salt (0.01 EUR)

Good pinch of freshly ground black pepper (0.02 EUR)

1 apple (0.20 EUR)

1 orange (0.20 EUR)

¼ cup walnuts (0.40 EUR)

METHOD:

Toss the cabbage and arugula with olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper and divide between two plates. Core and thinly slice the apple. Peel and thinly cut the orange. Arrange the apple and orange slices over cabbage and arugula, then sprinkle everything with walnuts. Serve immediately.

Još uvijek pokušavam stati na lopticu od svog onog blagdanskog prejedanja, pa mi je organizam bio željan salate. Međutim, odlučila sam biti malo fensi i pomiješati skupa zelenjavu, voće i orašaste plodove, što je po meni uvijek dobra ideja jer salatama daje zanimljivu mješavinu tekstura i okusa. Osim toga, obične su salate poprilično dosadne i generalno me baš i ne impresioniraju.
