Carrot Olive Salad

Hi All,

Today I decided to do a healthy salad with Carrots.Yes, carrot is a very healthy vegetable packed with lots of nurients. 100 gms of carrort will give you a 40 calories (which seems to be less compared to potato chips and all the junk food) but in every hundred grams it has 3 g of fiber,1 g of protien, 33 mg of calcium and 93% of vitamin A. Likewise lettuce and olive has lots of nutrients too.

The salad dressing that I have used in this recipe can be be made quickly and can be used in most of the salad you want to make. Alright, eat healthy and enjoy life!!

Ingredients:

2 to 3 medium sized Carrots

10 to 12 olives

4 leaves of lettuce

Almonds soaked in water and peeled (for decoration)

Serves: 2 people

Dressing:

2 table spoon of olive oil

1 clove of garlic

Juice from 1/2 lemon

Pepper

Method:

Cut the garlic and soak in olive oil along with the lemon juice and pepper half an hour before you make the salad.

Wash the carrot thoroughly and grate.

Cut the olive into half.

Serving:

Arange the lettuce leafs as a bed in a bowl.

Add the carrots and olives.

Pour the salad dressing on top of the salad.

Decorate with the almonds.

Note:

You could add a pinch or two of salt for taste. This salad is colorfull and will be like by children too.
