Salad plate




This simple salad plate is not a recipe as such, it's more of an assembly!  But by just taking the little bit of extra time to lay it out on a plate you have something that is attractive to the eye.

As you can see from the photo I mostly alternated red and green in rings.  I used a radish, a tomato, part of a red capsicum (bell pepper), part of a courgette (zucchini) and a red and green chilli.  For the dressing I simply sprinkled the plate with salt and pepper, a squeeze of lemon juice and some good extra virgin olive oil.  Simple and even healthy!

  1. Reminds me of the huge Victorian 'salmagundy' salads- where they displayed all the veg in beautiful concentric circles.

    [my spell checker insists 'salmagundy' ought to be spelled 'laundryman'- which is bizarre!!!]

  2. Such a pretty salad, but something I never think to do. I'm more of a "everything into the bowl" kind of salad maker. :)

  3. You created a beautiful display and it's a great way to change up the average salad. Beautiful and healthy!

  5. Very healthy! It is a lovely display. I tend to dump my salad ingredients all into a bowl.
