Minty Green Salad
Servings 4
Ingredients
- 4 cups spinach - I recommend using fresh spinach rather than canned ones for health and taste benefits. Try using this link to buy spinach we don't use this but we have heard a lot of good reviews, we buy our's from a standard supermarket
- 10 - 12 pieces of chopped cherry tomatoes - I use the red ones but if you prefer the yellow ones that's up to you
- 3 Gherkins Cucumbers - Gherkins are small and stubby cucumbers. If you can't find these you CAN use normal sized cucumbers.
- 1 large sliced pink onion - You can use red onions if you don't have pink ones.
- 2 shredded carrots - You can take any color orange or red it doesn't matter.
- 1 broccoli floret - You can try this link we don't use these but have heard some good reviews
- 7-8 pieces of baby corns - Cut them into thirds for best results.
