Lettuce salad: original recipes for preparing the dish. Simple salads

Hello again, my dear readers! The last article showed that you are not at all indifferent to the beauty of spring. Therefore, today I decided to continue the topic and also talk about the plant, only not about flowers, but about leaves... edible.

There are now a great many such leaves both in our own native beds and on the market. And in one article, of course, I won’t be able to talk about them all, so you need to choose the very best from this set... Which one do you think? I think these are lettuce leaves. And you? Do you agree?

For me, on this topic the most interest Ask this is what can be prepared from lettuce leaves? But let’s not break tradition and first talk about the benefits of the main character.

Salad benefits

I'm sure the benefits of this regular ingredient you've heard many times. But specifically, how is it useful for the body? Tricky question?! As usual, I plunged into the topic headlong and brought out specific usefulness into the light of day:

Lowering blood cholesterol levels;
Stabilization of metabolic processes (a lifesaver for those losing weight!);
Strengthening the immune system;
Barrier against toxins, gases and radiation;
Calms the nervous system;
Organizes good hematopoiesis;
Increases performance.

And they say that with its help you can even restore your eyesight! Just a record holder for calcium content (didn’t you know?), And how many minerals and vitamins it contains! So now, when winter is far behind us, is the time to replenish their reserves.

Naturally, no one will refuse this positive influence ordinary food on your body. But, for me personally, it is difficult to eat salad in its ordinary, “raw” form. Agree, most (if not all) of its types have a bitter taste. How to be? It's simple: we'll add it as a component of some dish.

Spring kitchen

Let's start with the simplest thing - mixing salads.

Cucumber salad

An ordinary dish, which, moreover, will not harm your figure at all. And it’s ready almost instantly! It will take you about 20 minutes to do everything about everything. Approximate content:

leaf salad
cucumbers
sour cream

Why approximate? And no one will forbid you to add an apple, for example, or olives to it and “throw out” the high-calorie eggs! The cooking process itself is incredibly simple. You just need to cut all the ingredients in arbitrary proportions and season with sour cream, for example. Seasonings, spices, herbs, you select those that you like, according to your taste - I have dill with parsley adore. And you, maybe – cilantro or celery?

Light salad with cheese

As I already wrote In this article, any salad with tomatoes and feta cheese ultimately becomes Greek. I’m not at all against Greek, but you can read how to prepare it in the above article, just add the leaves of our today’s hero to the described composition (other greens are also not forbidden).

Now we will make another salad, and there will be no tomatoes in it. What will happen? There will be cheese (or cheese) and greens. That's all! How? Elementary:

We tear the salad into small pieces, finely chop the available greens - onion, parsley and dill in my case. But three cheese cheese on a grater and combine. Ultimately, I season with sour cream, and if you respect mayonnaise, add a little. And I’ll tell you a secret, this salad is very tasty thin pita bread stuff.

Attention! Use salt in small quantities, as the cheese itself tastes quite salty. And it’s even better not to add salt to this salad at all.

What can be done variety of salads from salad (some kind of pun...) and vegetables, this is obvious. But what are the options with this simple ingredient Is there anything besides salad? Now I will tell you about this in detail. To begin with, I suggest preparing

Green sandwiches

In general, I am far from a supporter of fast food, hasty snacks and all that. But if you want to give yourself a snack, you need to bring it as close as possible. proper nutrition. It is for such a case that I will present you with a recipe that will not affect your figure, because there will be no bread in it. So, the recipe (ha! recipe... the funniest thing):

Place cheese, tomato, cucumber or apples on the layer of lettuce leaves you choose. You can pour the sauce over it all, and cover the top with the same layer as the bottom. You can improvise, create different variations about the filling of such a sandwich. How's the recipe? I think she gave me an idea after all.

Rolls with cottage cheese

In this version, in addition to today’s culprit, cottage cheese adds a bunch of benefits. If you wish, read more about it in this And in this article. Now watch the video to see how to prepare the dish.

The same principle is used to prepare cabbage rolls from lettuce leaves. I added cheese, herbs and nuts to the filling.

Well, it seems to me that there are enough snacks, it’s time for hot dishes.

Omelet with cheese

If you have an omelet, then by all means – eggs (or not?). In one container mix them with sour cream and tomato paste(you can use whole tomatoes) in a 1:1 ratio. Grind the cheese and add to the general mixture.

Pre-chop the leaves, for example, tear them or you can cut them with a knife, now pour them into a container with the resulting mixture. Add pepper, salt and your favorite spices to taste. That's all, feel free to put everything in a frying pan that has already been heated on the stove.

Advice! If you decide to use tomatoes instead of tomato, you must first fry them. Besides, this type An omelet does not tend to fry evenly, so if you don’t want to constantly stir, you can bake it in the oven.

Omelette goes perfectly with any meat, herbs and vegetables. Although, I prefer to sprinkle the finished omelette with fresh herbs on top, and eat it that way.

Green puree soup

Surely, you are aware that liquid is necessary for the body. And often, this expression refers to various liquid soups. So, I propose to prepare a useful and delicious soup with our today's hero. Compound:

lettuce leaves (lots and lots)
butter – 3 tbsp. spoons
flour – 2 tbsp. spoons
milk – 5-6 glasses

I will consider the cooking process using such a miracle of technology as a blender. If you do not have such a device, you can use a meat grinder.

Using a blender, puree the leaves. In a saucepan, lightly “fry” the flour with some butter, and leave another spoonful of butter for later. Dilute it all with hot milk, then boil and mix with green salad mixture. You need to cook for about 10-15 minutes. Next, add salt, butter, cream and the like to taste, as you like.

Advice! Any puree soup goes perfectly with croutons; I understand that this is not very healthy, but it is incredibly tasty.

Potato soup

Another soup, a little more substantial in my opinion. And we will need a blender at the end of cooking, but we can do without it (which is what I actually do). You can use absolutely any type of lettuce for it – “lollo rossa”, “iceberg” and others.

bulb onions
potato
milk
butter
chicken bouillon
lettuce leaves

Melt in a saucepan butter and add chopped onion into rings. If you already see that the onions are fried, you can add two cups of milk and three cups of chicken broth. After boiling, add the chopped potatoes and cook under the lid for literally 20 minutes. After the potatoes have already been cooked, add chopped leaves to it, “by eye”. Cook for another 5 minutes, don’t forget to add salt! Finally, grind everything in a blender. How do you like this option?

My dear hostesses, I hope that you liked the recipes with this useful ingredient. Don't forget that the salad can also be used in smoothie, with various combinations.

I wish you success in the culinary field, in preparing delicious dishes! And you, in turn, subscribe to updates and recommend the blog to your friends, because this is where the most necessary, useful and proven advice is collected!
