Salads of this type - with fresh greens and vegetables - do not last long, vegetables let in juice, and herbs quickly fade. Therefore, they are served immediately to the table. And fill with sour cream just before serving. Consider this when cooking.

How to make a light birthday salad? Prepare the products. Pre-boil or bake the fillet and then cool. Take the boiled eggs. One cucumber is large or two small. Put the polka dots on a sieve so that the glass is all liquid. You can take any salad leaves - Latuca, iceberg, Romano, even Beijing cabbage will suit its green part). I have a frieze salad. Take sour cream with low fat content - 10-15% will be enough.

I used baked fillets. How to bake fillets? Wash the meat and dry well. Salt it well from all sides, you can also coat it with any spices (I did not). Wrap the fillet in foil and place in a baking dish. Bake in the oven at 180 ° C for 35-40 minutes, depending on the size of the piece. Chill the finished fillet and cut into cubes.

Peel and chop the eggs into cubes as well.

Wash the cucumber, cut off the tails. Cut into cubes the same size as previous products. Be sure to try the cucumber before cutting, whether it will mustard or it will ruin the whole salad.

Wash the greens, dry and chop finely. I took dill, parsley and spring onions will work well in such a salad.

Fold all the vegetables and chopped greens into a salad bowl. Pour in the green peas. Wash the salad leaves and dry well as well. Tear them into a salad bowl. It is important to do this with your hands, from contact with a knife, the salad oxidizes and wilts faster.

Add sour cream, salt to taste.

Mix the salad well. Serve it immediately to the table.

The salad can be served both in a salad bowl and laid out using a culinary ring. Enjoy your meal!

How to boil hard-boiled eggs? To prevent the eggs from cracking when cooking, put them in cold water and set them to cook on a small heat. Cook the eggs for 9 minutes after boiling, then cover with cold water and cool. It is better to clean the shell from a sharp temperature difference.

The salad will look beautiful and neat if you cut all the ingredients into the same size and shape in pieces (for example, cubes).

Sour cream can be replaced with natural yogurt without additives.
