Many people believe that vegetable salads are a corny light dish, which will not be difficult to prepare: they cut the vegetables, poured them with dressing and mixed them. However, the salad can be prepared in a rather original way, adding all kinds of products and seasonings to the composition. For example, almost all types of cheeses (both hard and soft) are harmoniously combined with all vegetables (bell peppers, cabbage, cucumbers, tomatoes, radishes, zucchini, potatoes). Therefore, by combining different products, you can get new delicious salads, which will be an excellent option, especially if guests unexpectedly arrived.
You can also prepare a variety of sauces for dressing salads. They will completely change the taste of the finished food. They can be made on the basis of vinegar, lemon juice, olive oil, with the addition of spices, garlic, etc. Some recipes for similar sauces and dressings are presented on the site. This review offers one of many salad options using processed cheese and fresh first summer vegetables. The dish turns out to be both tasty and satisfying at the same time. It will be appropriate both in your daily diet and at a festive dinner.

Cooking vegetable salad with cheese:
1. Wash white cabbage under running water and pat dry with a cotton towel. Chop finely into thin strips with a sharp knife. Sprinkle it with a pinch of salt and crush it lightly with your hands. As soon as you feel that the cabbage is getting wet, transfer it to a salad bowl. This means that she has started the juice, thanks to which the dish will turn out to be juicier.
2. Wash the cucumbers, cut off the ends and cut into thin 3 mm half rings. Send them to the cabbage.
3. Wash the radishes, cut off the tail and also cut into half rings, like cucumbers.
4. Cut the processed cheese into cubes. If it is too soft, then pre-soak it for about 15 minutes in the freezer. This will make the cheese easier to cut.
5. Put all the food in a salad bowl, season with salt and top with oil or a more complex sauce.
6. Stir the food, chill the salad in the refrigerator for 10 minutes and serve it to the table. Put the vegetables on a dish and sprinkle with flax seeds.
