Plain Salad is a simple, nutrient-packed dish typically made from fresh vegetables such as lettuce, spinach, cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots, and sometimes a touch of onion or bell pepper. Often served raw, it originates from various cuisines, as salads are a universal staple, yet its minimalist preparation aligns with Western and Mediterranean traditions. This version excludes heavy dressings, cheese, or croutons, keeping it light and low in calories. Rich in vitamins such as A and C, as well as minerals like potassium, a plain salad supports hydration, digestion, and overall health due to its high water and fiber content. It may lack protein or healthy fats unless paired with added ingredients like nuts, seeds, or lean proteins, making it a refreshing but incomplete meal option on its own for balanced nutrition.
