I'm pretty much a noob at making salads. And I live pretty meagerly with not much of a budget. So from all the information I learned, this is a recipe I came up with at fairly low cost. I'm just starting on my weight loss journey. So I can't confirm results. I'm not a chef. I welcome anybody to examine this, and give feedback/suggestions.
EZ DAILY CHOPPED SALAD
Garlic
Onion
Ginger
Chili Pepper (any sort of hot pepper)
Kale (or Spinach, Lettuce)
Cucumber
Tomato
Bell Pepper
Sprouted Brown Rice
Sprouted Lentil
Tuna (not necessary, or a good meat)
Lemon
EV Olive Oil (or any oil)
White Wine Vinegar (or any vinegar)
Plain Yogurt (not sweetened)
Sea Salt
Black Pepper (seasoning)
I chop everything up to bits. Sort of like dicing or use a food processor. The ginger and chili pepper is advice I got from Indian style cooking. To enrich the flavor. Lentil is advice somebody gave me here. Brown rice might not taste so great, but is excellent for weight loss. And actually tastes just fine. Sprouting both brown rice and lentil improves the nutritional value tremendously. They can both be boiled a bit.
Splashing in lemon, oil, vinegar, salt/pepper with a little bit of plain yogurt makes a great light glaze. I wouldn't refer to it as a typical dressing that might be more saucy. The kale and cucumber can be chopped marinated with this glaze in the refrigerator overnight to tenderize them.
The salad stands well on its own without meat. But I like to add a bit of tuna with additional lemon. I use tuna because it's the cheapest thing I know of that's decently healthy.
