Surely many people often think about which salad to cook. It seems we have already tried everything. However, sometimes, when using the same products, it is enough just to replace the dressing and the salad will immediately sparkle with new flavor notes. Today I suggest making a nutritious and light cabbage salad with tomatoes. It cooks very quickly, food is not expensive now, and a spicy dressing of mustard, soy sauce and olive oil adds to the taste of the dish.
The main component of the meal is young white cabbage. It carries a real vitamin charge in itself: vitamins A, C, group B, P, K. It also contains nicotinic acid, fiber and trace elements. At the same time, sucrose and starch are practically absent, therefore it is low in calories. But one of the main advantages is that in order to process it, the body spends more calories than the vegetable itself contains. Therefore, we can assume that there are absolutely no calories in cabbage. These qualities make it one of the main vegetables for weight loss and the desire to normalize the figure.
If you want to lose extra pounds, I advise you to include cabbage in your daily diet. And so that she does not become boring, add different vegetables to salads and use all kinds of sauces for dressing. I think that no one will remain indifferent to such a light salad.

Step-by-step preparation of fresh cabbage and tomato salad:
1. Wash the white cabbage and pat dry with a paper towel. Remove the top inflorescences as they are usually dirty and cut off the right amount from the head. Chop it into thin strips, sprinkle with salt and shake your hands so that she lets out the juice. Then the salad will be very juicy. Do not overdo it with salt, because the salad will also contain soy sauce, which is also salty.
2. Wash the tomatoes, dry with a paper towel, cut into cubes and add to the cabbage.
3. Next, add chopped herbs and finely chopped garlic.
4. Combine mustard, soy sauce and olive oil in a saucepan. Stir the food.
5. Season the salad with the sauce and stir. Taste and add the missing spices if desired. You can start tasting.
Note: Salad brush for body cleansing is prepared with little or no salt and a minimum amount of oil. If your goal is to lose weight, then exclude soy sauce and mustard from the recipe. You can also supplement the composition of the dish with any other vegetables: for example, raw beets or celery root. These products are also included in the dietary menu for weight loss.
