At the end of summer and early autumn, the external cold and internal heat can make people angry. Eat more vegetables that clear the lungs and promote gastrointestinal motility to help reduce the fire. Today I bring an appetizing cold dish with no oil and less salt. Chinese people like to call it big mixed vegetables. In foreigners, it's actually called salad. But our salad doesn't have to be rich in fat and greasy salad dressing, and even a drop of oil is not put in, but it makes people appetite. Let's take a look!
I used 4 kinds of fruits and vegetables for this large mixed dish-arugula, cucumber, spherical lettuce, large tomatoes, and a few nuts-pecans. The whole dish is tender, refreshing and crispy. With this method, you can also replace the ingredients in it. A small dish every day is good for the whole family!
Arugula is a kind of wild vegetable, and now it is more often grown artificially that its tender stems can be eaten as a vegetable. Arugula is rich in nutrients and contains many nutrients, such as vitamins, minerals, etc. The young leaves have a strong sesame flavor, which is especially suitable for cold dressing. Nowadays, people are paying more and more attention to health preservation, and the expectorant effect of arugula has also attracted many people's attention. In late summer and early autumn, eat cold vegetables containing arugula, which has the effect of clearing lung fire and scraping intestines.
Pecans are the fruit of American pecans, also known as "longevity fruits". It is one of the 17 species of pecans in the world. Its flesh is light yellow, crisp and delicious, rich in nutrition, rich in protein, amino acids and vitamin A and B vitamins. It is the best choice for nourishing the kidney and brain, and nourishing the middle and nourishing qi. The oil in the pecan can also prevent arteriosclerosis. , The effect of promoting defecation, especially suitable for mental workers, young people and the elderly. For people with premature white hair and aging skin, two or three pecans (walnuts) a day will also have black hair and moisturizing effects. Women over 30 have less energy and stamina than they did when they were 25 years old, especially young mothers with children, who need a few nuts a day to relieve fatigue and replenish stamina.

Ingredients

Pecan Vegetable Salad

1. Prepare the main ingredients: unsalted pecans, arugula, cucumbers, tomatoes, lettuce, clean, and shake off the water between the leaves;

2. Cut arugula into inch pieces;

4. Cut the spherical lettuce into thick shreds;

5. Cut large tomatoes into thick slices;

6. Put several kinds of vegetables and fruits into a large bowl, sprinkle a little salt;

7. Pour in red grape vinegar. You can also use other fruit vinegar or white rice vinegar instead. In short, just use vinegar with light color and refreshing taste;

Tips:
1. This salad is a fast-handed dish. It should be eaten fresh and should not be left for a long time to prevent excessive nutrient loss and prolonged pickling which will affect the appearance and taste;
2. The variety of vegetables can be adjusted according to the four seasons, and the seasoning should not be too much, so as not to suppress the fragrance of vegetables;
3. The selection of pecans depends on whether the pecans are full, the color is uniform, and the size of the individual is as consistent as possible; if the nuts are sticky, dark brown, and have a smell of hala, it means that they have seriously deteriorated and cannot be eaten; After that, the pecans must be sealed and preserved to prevent deterioration and affect health.
