For some, stay-at-home COVID-19 lockdown times meant less workout and more snacking. Which means more pounds on your body to fret over. For some others, lockdown meant the start of a new healthier diet. With the beginning of a fresh year, both teams are likely to go for resolutions of keeping their diet options healthier.
Whichever group you belong to, we wish you good luck with your plans. And to help with it, here are three salad bowl recipes from Onmanorama Food that you can try right away:
Cabbage-sprout salad that is light on the stomach
Packed with proteins, this healthy salad bowl is an excellent meal option which is light on the stomach. The main ingredients include purple cabbage, lettuce and pomegranate. However, you can experiment with the vegetables and fruits and throw in your favourite to make it more appetizing.
Crunchy bean salad
This crunchy option would give you an instant mood-lift. Though it wouldn't quite fill you up, it could make the perfect midday snack or dinner appetizer.
Raw papaya salad
With vegetable prices soaring, this could be one of the best pocket-friendly options. Raw papayas can easily be found in one's backyard. Even if you don't have options to just go and pluck one, you can always get them from your local vendors or supermarkets. One medium sized raw papaya would cost less than Rs 50 in the shops.
