Happy Saturday, loves! Everyone knows a salad is basically one of the healthiest things to eat but I would rather pass on having it if it consists only of the usual lettuce, cabbage and carrot. I need some more interesting things going on please! So see how I made this quick and easy healthy option for snacking.

Ingredients

Shredded chicken- NGN500 (boiled and not grilled)

Sausages- NGN350

Eggs- NGN200 (boiled and sliced)

Lettuce- NGN100

Cucumber- NGN200

Sweet corn- NGN350

Tomato-NGN150

Raisins or Dried Fruit-NGN1000

Cream- NGN500 , Sprite-NGN100 (You'll know why I love this combination soon)

Note: No cabbage or carrot, let's leave that for cole slaw. Shall we? 

Method

Get a large bowl and lay out the freshly sliced lettuce. This should always come first.

Dice the cucumber and mix with the lettuce

Wash, dice the tomatoes and mix them in.

Add the shredded chicken

Heat the sausages for a minute, slice and add into the mixture.

Mix the sliced boiled eggs

The sweet corn should go in next

And lastly soak the raisins in hot water for two minutes to make them plump before adding to the salad mix.

Mix everything in properly and serve with your favourite dressing. For mine, I just mixed some cream with a bit of Sprite.

There are a lot of other things I love to add to my salads and they include avocado and kidney beans. Your choice!
