delicious salad... and very easy to prepare...love this simple INSALATA!

This simple, healthy & nutritious salad is easy to make & delicious to eat.

It's Friday the end of the week, I was just thinking to myself where did the week go???? I have been so busy these past few days. I had my last Dutch lesson on Tuesday so starting again in October. I have been trying to organise a few things that I need to do over the summer and to top it off I had errands to do this morning. :) As I mentioned in my previous post I am back with another salad recipe!! Since I still have errands to do I wanted to make a very light lunch and this was a fantastic choice.Sorry my post will be quite short today but I will catch you all up on what I will be doing in the future. We are off for the weekend, we are going to visit friends :)Wishing everyone a great weekend, see you back here on Monday :)

Boiled beetroots and fresh tomatoes are cut in small cubes and mixed with watercress. A pleasure to the eyes!

This tuna salad is very recommended!!! it is simple, tasty and very fresh!!!

it is very easy to prepare and quite nutritious.

Tried to make a simple salad that is nutritous and at the same time my 8 year old would enjoy

I recommend raspberry walnut Vinaigrette for the dressing

My daughter was 3 and hooked to Disney Movies, especially those which had Princesses as prominent charecters, Ariel from The Little Mermaid and Belle from Beauty and The Beast were her hot favourites. So of course, she tried to copy their dialogues, their looks and generally idolised them. This might not sound very politically correct in today's times, but am talking of nearly 18 years ago and man, she really worshipped those animated divas on the screen! So, while I used to struggle to get nutritious, wholesome meals down her tummy at every meal, I hit upon the idea of telling her that if she ate beetroot, she would get red, rosy cheeks like all those cartoon Princesses she loved so much, and to my sheer joy and wonder, this beetroot salad is something she developed a fondness for and I did not have to then make any effort to get her to finish that portion of the meal from her plate, ever! She has long since outgrown her Disney fixation, she now has real, strong and motivating women as her role models, but continues to never ever say no to beetroot till this day :) That's the story behind the name for this simple, healthy salad !

I love this salad, for although you may have it year round, it looks more apt in the fall due to the beautiful colors of beets and carrots, like autumn leaves.

Simple, delicious, easy to prepare n cook and it takes little time.
