Diet salad with young cabbage and cucumbers

Rinse the cabbage under running water or remove a couple of top leaves, then chop it finely. The young vegetable is juicy and tender, ideal for a healthy snack, but it is not entirely suitable for stewing and frying.

Rinse fresh cucumbers and remove the stems from both ends. Taste the cucumbers to ensure the skin is not bitter. Then cut the vegetables into medium strips or strips. Crispy vegetables go perfectly with young cabbage. For the cabbage and cucumber salad recipe, both large and small fruits are suitable.

Place the shredded cabbage in a mixing bowl. Immediately select deeper dishes.

Add prepared chopped cucumbers to it.

Rinse all the greens under running water, let all excess liquid drain. Dry the greens with paper towels, then finely chop. Green onions and dill will give cabbage and cucumber salad a spicy, refreshing note.

Add all the chopped greens to the vegetables.

Season the dish with salt and pepper to taste, add a couple of pinches of sugar to balance the taste.

Pour in the olive oil - it should be extra cold pressed. Add 9% table vinegar. You can safely use 6% apple cider vinegar instead. Adjust the amount of vinegar to taste so that it does not turn out too sour.

Mix the diet cabbage and cucumber salad thoroughly to combine all the ingredients. Let it brew for the vegetables to release their juice, then place the dish in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes. During this time, the cabbage will even be lightly marinated with vinegar - it will be delicious.

Then serve the finished dish to the table. It is aromatic, fresh and very juicy. The benefits of this salad are maximum, and the taste is rich and bright, you will love it!
