Similar to a chunky pico de gallo, this side salad recipe provides an array of antioxidants from the cucumber, bell peppers, tomato, green onions, and garlic. Ingredients:
2 cups english cucumber, chopped |
1 cup chopped red bell pepper |
1 cup chopped yellow bell pepper |
1 cup chopped plum tomato |
1/2 cup chopped green onions |
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
1 teaspoon olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon dijon mustard |
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
6 red leaf lettuce leaves (optional) |
Directions:
1. Combine first 5 ingredients in a large bowl. Combine lemon juice and next 5 ingredients (lemon juice through garlic) in a small bowl; stir well with a whisk. Pour dressing over vegetables; toss gently to coat. Serve salad on lettuce leaves, if desired. |
