Fruit and Vegetable Salad


I love fruits and vegetables. I can eat a bowl of them just by myself. While we can eat each fruit individually, eating a few mixture of them in small pieces with some nice dressing is a delight to me. You can do this with a blink of an eye. It is a simple yet healthy dish for a person on the go as it is fast to make. Just a few spoonful of mayonnaise will not make your scale rise above usual. So, just enjoy the delights while watching your favorite tv programme or just reading your favorite book or magazine!

Ingredients

1 red tomato, diced
1 yellow tomato, diced
1 carrot, cut into 1 inch length
1 cucumber, cut into 1 inch length
1 green apple, cut into triangular shape
1 tea spoon dried Italian herbs or any dried herbs you have ( basil, oregano, dill etc)
a handful of coriander leaves, chopped finely
a half of lemon juice
a pinch of salt or none ( as preferred)
a dash of pepper ( as preferred)
2-3 table spoonful of mayonnaise ( low fat if you prefer)

Methods
1. Clean all the vegetable and fruits. Cut them as directed above. Put them in a bowl and mix with the mayonnaise.

2. Sprinkle a pinch of salt, if you preferred or none. Then add the herbs and some pepper and a half of lemon juice and the chopped coriander leaves.

3. Mix them all and keep cool in a refrigerator for half and hour before consuming it or you can eat it immediately.
