This refreshing and satisfying salad is packed with ingredients that promote weight loss and boost metabolism.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cucumbers
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (for cucumbers)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 onion
  • Olive oil (for sautéing)
  • 1/2 cabbage
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (for cabbage)
  • 1/2 red cabbage
  • 3-4 tablespoons of thick yogurt
  • Dill (to taste)
  • 2-3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • Nuts (for garnish)

Method:

  1. Prepare the Cucumbers: Start by washing and slicing the cucumbers into thin rounds. Place the cucumber slices in a bowl and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Let them sit for about 10 minutes to draw out excess water, then drain and set aside.
  2. Boil the Eggs: Boil the eggs until hard-boiled, which should take about 10 minutes. Once done, peel and chop them into small pieces.
  3. Prepare the Carrot and Onion: Peel and grate the carrot. Finely chop the onion. In a small skillet, heat a bit of olive oil over medium heat and sauté the onion until it becomes translucent. Set aside to cool.
  4. Shred the Cabbages: Finely shred both the white and red cabbages. Place them in a large mixing bowl and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Mix well and let them sit for a few minutes to soften slightly.
  5. Combine the Ingredients: In the large mixing bowl with the cabbages, add the sliced cucumbers, grated carrot, chopped eggs, and sautéed onion. Mix everything thoroughly.
  6. Prepare the Dressing: In a separate bowl, combine the thick yogurt, chopped dill, and apple cider vinegar. Mix well until smooth. Pour this dressing over the salad mixture and toss until all the ingredients are well coated.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Just before serving, sprinkle the salad with your choice of nuts for added crunch and flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy this nutritious, belly-fat-burning salad.
