Always, and especially now before the holidays when we are, thank G-d, blessed with abundant meals, we think about how to upgrade the table so that it won’t look like ‘just another meal’.
A talented group of Hebrew speakers from Breslev Israel created an interesting culinary surprise, full of color and flavors. This salad definitely meets the upgrade request and makes even a weekday table something interesting and intriguing. This recipe is also suitable as a meal in itself if you want to add bits of cheese, avocado, tuna, or anything else that suits your fancy.
