Notes
The caloric value was calculated per serving.
Tip: use this salad as a side dish or transform it into a main dish adding some
mozzarella, goat cheese, boiled eggs, or chicken breast. Recommendations for doshas Vata: this salad is perfect for Vata. Pitta: Especially in the summer, this salad can be used only with raw vegetables,
as Pitta has a strong Agni (digestive fire). Use lime juice instead of lemon juice. Add cucumber and fresh mint leaves. Kapha: use sunflower oil instead of olive oil. Use a salad mix with chicory,
endive, or other bitter salad variety.
