And finally, we'll prepare a beetroot-spinach salad You may be thinking - "Spinach! How will I make a salad with that?" But with a sweet date chutney and the crunch of walnuts, you can make a veggie
like spinach tasty too But before learning these 3 salads, we'll learn the formula for a good salad If you want to make any salad tasty, you'll need to prepare 3 layers for it 1st - your base - which includes all veggies like spinach, coriander, lettuce, cabbage, carrot, cucumber, tomato, capsicum broccoli, cauliflower, peas, green beans, or any other veggies These will make up the
biggest part of the salad then come your healthy fats, which include coconuts or other nuts like almonds, walnuts, peanuts, cashews, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds or any other fats Nuts and seeds don't just bring fats, but also a crunch to your salads But don't add too many of them And the 3rd part is our dressing, which means our flavourful chutney This brings flavour to our salad Leaving store-bought dressings aside, you can make many different types of chutneys or dressings at home How? We'll show you how in this video 1 bonus ingredient that you can add to any salad is sprouts Sprouts are full of life, filled a lot of life energy! That's why, add a fistful of sprouts to your salad, not just sprinkle some You can use any sprouts that you want. The best are vegetable sprouts like fenugreek, radish, alfalfa, and clover sprouts When you add all 4 parts in your salad, you will get a very wholesome and nutritious salad and you can easily replace your lunch and dinner with salads So come let's start with our recipes Every recipe in this video
serves up to 2 people We'll start with our cheesy salad You may be thinking - cheese in a Satvic salad? Yes and no! We will add cheese, but not the dairy-processed one but a homemade cashew cheese made with natural ingredients First take 1/2 cup cashews and soak them for at least 6 hours We must consume all nuts only after soaking them Soaking them makes them easier to digest Add soaked cashews to a blender, add 1/2 small green chilli and 1/4 cup coconut milk Now blend them all together until they form a smooth, paste-like consistency Coconut milk is really easy to make We have even made a special video on it on our channel We have shared the link for it in the description box below Now our tasty creamy
cashew chutney is ready Now we'll prepare our veggies For this, take 1 cup chopped broccoli 1 cup finely and roundly chopped babycorn, If you don't have babycorn, you can use normal corn too First steam the broccoli and babycorn for 2-3 mins If you don't have a steamer, you can use a strainer and pot to create a steamer After 2-3 mins, add red and yellow capsicum too 1 cup chopped red capsicum and 1 cup chopped yellow capsicum We have to cut both capsicums into small pieces like this and steam them for another 2 mins We are adding capsicum later because capsicum steams early After lightly steaming them, transfer all the veggies to a bowl Allow them to cool for 1-2 mins Add the cashew cheese that
you prepared to it Add 1 tsp rock salt and
1 tsp dry oregano leaves Mix them all properly together There! Our creamy cheesy salad is ready! Why not make a few

medium-sized sweet potato which you can cut from the middle and steam for 20 mins till it softens When the sweet potato has finished steaming, keep it outside & allow it to cool Now peel it and mash it with a fork Top it with 1 tbsp dry rosemary leaves and mix it well You can easily buy dry rosemary leaves from Amazon for Rs. 100-200 1 bottle easily lasts for 4-6 months And now comes the most fun part of this recipe We're going to make these small cubes using the sweet potato mix You can make 10-12 cubes using your hands like this Now take a small bowl and add 1 tbsp lemon juice to it 1/4 tbsp black pepper, and 1/2 tsp rock salt Now dip these cubes in this mixture properly one by one Ensure that the lemon juice covers all sides of the cubes remove them and keep them on a plate If you're preparing this salad in summers, you can use pumpkin instead of sweet potatoes too Then add 1.5 cup chopped broccoli and steam it for 10 mins too Until the broccoli steams, take 1/4 red capsicum Chop it in thin long slices like this Similarly, take a yellow capsicum and cut it into thin, long slices too Take 2 cup lettuce leaves and remove big chunks of them with your hands Now take a big bowl and add your lettuce, capsicum, broccoli, sweet potato cubes, Add everything and mix it together Now our salad base is ready Now we'll prepare our tangy tomato chutney To prepare the chutney, you'll need 2 tomatoes Remove their seeds and peels and keep them in the freezer just for 40 mins Take a mixer and add your frozen tomatoes to it 1/4 cup chopped coriander leaves 1 tbsp chopped red capsicum 1/4 tsp roasted cumin powder 1/2 tsp lemon juice 1/2 chopped green chilli 1/2 tsp rock salt and a pinch of black pepper Remember for all these salads recipes, you must use measuring cups and spoons like these Don't use spoons and cups at home, or you won't get the right taste Now blend all these
ingredients together properly We don't have to blend the chutney too much or else it will turn out too green and won't look good Blend it till it's mildly coarse in texture
and red in colour There!
