Fall Green Salad


I got these curly leaf parsley and cherry tomatoes from one of my friends (home grown) and wanted to use it in a dish where I can really taste the parsley flavor and also indirectly work on my sinus too.
Apple Cider Vinegar has lot of health benefits and gives a nice relief for sinus too. I have also posted a complete article on the benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar (Click on the link to view the post) - it's a must read post to really know the benefits.
This salad is very refreshing and good for you with all the freshness and bright colors.

Ingredients:
----------------
2 cups Curly Leaf Parsley (washed and chopped fine)
10 Cherry Tomatoes quartered
1/4 Red Onion thinly sliced
1 whole Cucumber thinly sliced (I used a mandolin)
2 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
1/2 tsp Balsamic Vinegar
1/2 tsp Italian Seasoning
1/4 cup Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste

Method:
------------
1. Mix all these ingredients in a large mixing bowl gently and serve this cold or room temperature in a salad bowl.


(Note: To keep the salad crispy, mix it just before serving)
2. I planned to serve this with White Rice flavored with chicken stock and Apple Cider Grilled Salmon or you can make this white rice and mix in the salad to make Rice and Herb Salad and top it with Apple Cider Grilled Salmon.

Sending this recipe to: Archana and Priya.
