Warm or Cold - Veg or Non-Veg - THE WAY YOU WANT SALAD

Ohh, we were so bored to eat the same type of food and also didn't want to add the extra calories, sodium from outside food.  Wanted to eat something tasty, crunchy, spicy yet healthy... 

Tada...made this salad with anything that came to my hand from the life saver refrigerator. 

We n'joyed the flavor, crunch and yummy..

YOUR CREATIVITY CAN COME VERY HANDY WITH THIS SALAD. 

Come on ppl, I know you are artistic, add more color and texture to the palatte.
