About Zelena salata

Zelena Salata, translating to "green salad" in Croatian, is a simple yet refreshing dish commonly enjoyed across Balkan cuisine. Typically composed of freshly sliced cucumbers and lettuce, it often includes parsley, green onions, or radishes for added flavor. The salad is dressed lightly with olive oil, vinegar, and a pinch of salt, emphasizing natural flavors without overwhelming them. Zelena Salata is a nutritious side dish that offers hydration and vitamins like A, C, and K, primarily derived from its leafy greens and cucumbers. Olive oil contributes heart-healthy fats, making it a wholesome addition. Its minimal seasoning and raw preparation allow it to retain fiber and other essential nutrients. While healthy overall, moderating the amount of oil and salt is recommended for those watching calorie or sodium intake. Simple, vibrant, and nutritious, Zelena Salata pairs well with grilled meats or main courses for a balanced meal.
