Prettaly – Pretty Italy

Summer is finally here (maybe not today, but in genreal) and at least I am craving light and fresh salads. This is a green summery mix and can be either served as a starter or as a side. A nice variation is to prepare the salad as is with quinoa to make it a little more nourishing.

See how to make this summer salad here:

Ingredients for 2 as a starter or side
½ cucumber
1 medium avocado
Fresh basil leaves
½ pack feta cheese (approx. 100g)
Juice of ½ lime
Olive oil
Salt & pepper

Directions
Wash the cucumber and halve it, removing the seeds in the middle with a spoon and cut into crescents. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit and cut into little squares. Wash the basil leaves and rip them apart. Mix all ingredients together and crumble the feta on top. Squeeze out the lime juice, add 1-2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

Alternative: You can also add approx. 100g quinoa (prepare as per directions on the pack).
