Health Benefits of Greek Salad by Olasolution1(m) : 12:53 pm On Sep 03, 2018 |
Its All About Food
Health Benefits Of Eating Greek Salad (olasolutionfoodiespecial.blogspot.com) With the little knowledge of mine, There are various kind of salads. A Greek salad is a twist on a traditional tossed green salad that usually includes: Feta cheese, Olives, Cucumber, Red onion, Pinch of Chopped Garlic, Pinch of Black pepper, and olive oil, in addition to the standard Lettuce and Tomato. The inclusion of these additional ingredients is a healthy way to punch up the nutrition of your salad by adding key vitamins and minerals to your salad. The bulk of a Greek salad is made up of the Leafy greens, Tomatoes, Onions and Cucumbers. These are Low-calorie and Nutrient-dense foods to include in your daily diet. Salad greens provides you with a healthy dose of vitamins A and C, as well as potassium and iron. As a matter of fact, salad greens also contain phytonutrients and antioxidants, which are beneficial compounds that help protect your health, as well as reduce your risk of health problems such as heart disease and cancer. One cup of tomatoes on your salad supplies you 24.7 mg of vitamin C and 1,499 IU of vitamin A. Cucumbers are a healthy source of potassium for just 8 calories per 1/2-cup serving. Red onion slices provide additional vitamin A and C, as well as a small amount of fiber. Below is the picture of my Greek Salad made today. We shall be looking forward talking about other Salads next time. Cheers! |
