Recipe of Monik salad
Vida Recetas Editorial
The Monik salad is a fresh, easy, and quick recipe, ideal as a side dish for any main course or as a light standalone meal. This salad stands out for its combination of textures and flavors: crisp lettuce, juicy tomato, the sweetness of apricot, the salty touch of black olives, and the freshness of carrot and onion.
The special touch comes from its dressing made with natural yogurt, a splash of olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper, which gives it a unique creaminess without being heavy. It is perfect for those looking for a healthy and nutritious option, as it combines fresh vegetables with a source of probiotics like yogurt.
Originating from home cooking, this salad has become a staple for its versatility: you can adjust the ingredients to your taste or what you have on hand. It is recommended to add the dressing just before serving to keep the lettuce crisp and prevent it from wilting. A recipe you will definitely want to make again.
