Shrimp, Lettuce and Egg Salad Recipe
January 4th, 2014 in Salads by Julia Volhina
This unusual combination of ingredients yields pretty interesting salad. And it tastes best then prepared right before serving.
Original recipe calls for 10 quail eggs, but I find them somehow hard to find here, so I used 2 chicken eggs as replacement.
Pineapples themselves are optional ingredient, you can skip on them if you wish so, but with them salad tastes more interesting.
Chicken and Mushroom Salad
December 21st, 2013 in Salads by Julia Volhina
It is a holiday season. In slavic world rare holiday table will go by without tons of salads, actually none will.
This is why I will try to focus on salad recipes these couple of week (as much as I can, during with my vacation to Ukraine).
This salad recipe calls for just few ingredients: chicken, mushrooms, eggs and mayo are main ingredients. And there is no onions or garlic, which makes this salad a good choice for lunch on a go.
Deviled Eggs with Blue Cheese
September 14th, 2013 in Appetizers & Snacks, Eggs by Julia Volhina
Blue cheese and boiled egg yolks seasoned with fresh parsley, tobasco sauce and mayo tastes a bit unusual and a bit spicy. But if you are true lover of blue cheese this recipe is definitely for you.
By the way if you like it to be more spice – use a bit more tobasco sauce, or you can skip the sauce all together otherwise.
If you would like eggs to look a bit more festive, use pastry bag with a star tip on it to arrange stuffing mix into egg halves, simple ziplock can be used too (just staff mix into it, seal it and cut one of tips off), or just a tea spoon.
Spring Radish Salad
March 23rd, 2013 in Salads by Julia Volhina
Another spring-envy salad, probably not as light as one would want, mostly because of mayo. But in this one I wouldn’t suggest to replacing mayo with sour cream or yoghurt.
It doesn’t take much time to prepare, about 15 mins of mostly chopping. Boil eggs in advance, let them cool down till room temperature before adding to the salad.
Prepare this salad right before serving for best taste.
Green Beans and Eggs Salad
October 20th, 2012 in Salads by Julia Volhina
Another recipe for green beans and eggs, now in a form of egg salad with garlic and mayo.
As all foods prepared from green beans I know, it doesn’t require much time to do: about 20 mins from beginning to end or even less if you use cooked eggs and thin french green beans.
Adjust amount of garlic and mayo to your taste.
Tuna Salad Sandwich
July 14th, 2012 in Fish, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
Tuna salad sandwich is a great choice of food for a lunch or to take with you when you are on the go.
This tuna salad with eggs, bell pepper and a bit of onions is easy to do, and can be stored in a fridge for couple of days if needed.
I use tuna chunks in water, but tuna in oil will work as well, if you like it more – use it.
Listed amount ingredients is enough for 11-12 sandwiches.
Celery Root Salad with Apples and Eggs
January 14th, 2012 in Salads by Julia Volhina
Knowing me you can probably guess that this tender slaw-like salad made of grated fresh celery root, apples and chopped egg is dressed with mayo.
By the way, celery root here is hardly recognizable: it has nutty taste and (if you are not used to it) tastes nothing like celery stalks, maybe because of apples.
I would define this taste as unusual; if you stumble upon fresh celery root in a store – give it a try, after all celery is known as low-calorie source of dietary fiber.
