Want to eat healthy while satisfying your food cravings? A salad is the perfect meal that can provide you with all the benefits of a balanced meal while being lip smacking. Let's look at 5 things that can help you achieve the perfect blend of health and taste!

Fresh greens

The greens used in a salad should be fresh and crrunchy

The right use of greens and herbs can transform your salad. Make sure your herbs and veggies are fresh and not frozen. Choose whether you want basil, mint, cilantro, dill, or parsley-wisely.

Homemade dressing

Always make the salad dressing at home with fresh ingredients

The first rule of eating healthy is to avoid products with preservatives. Make your dressing at home with simple ingredients like lemon, olive oil, mustard or honey and a simple dash of vinegar can make it longlasting!

Mandatory protein

Let salad fulfil your protein requirement

A protein source will not only make your salad tastier, but it will add to its health factor, giving you a full meal. So put in some grilled chicken, boiled eggs, fish,  tofu, paneer or beans.

Rich salad texture

Texture wins the game in a Salad

A good salad is one that has a variety of textures, elevating the mouth feel. To add some crunch, include some nuts, croutons or fried lentils. If you want a creamy salad, some cheese would be a nice addition.

Balancing flavours 

Salad is all about a balance of flavours

Your salad should hit the right notes if it has all the five flavour elements: sweet, salty, sour, bitter and umami. Make sure to balance them right. 


Don't wait, start your health journey with the perfect salad.
