Weight Loss Boiled Vegetable Salad Recipe For Dinner - Diet Plan To Lose Weight Fast -Skinny Recipes

Hey guys, welcome back to my channel. If you are new here, hi my name is Nisha Homi and I create healthy and nutrient dense recipes for weight loss and weight management. Today I am sharing an oil free weight loss salad which is filling and full of fiber. This warm salad is nutrient dense and is a perfect meal for dinner or even for lunch. The healthy fats in this oil free weight loss salad helps in nutrient absorption. So without wasting much time, let's get started with the recipe. To make boiled vegetable salad, I am using seasonal vegetables and this warm salad is a perfect dinner recipe especially during monsoons and winters. This recipe serves 2 and I usually enjoy this filling and wholesome salad with my husband. It is easy to make in the steamer and the warm salad is perfect with the oil free salad dressing. The oil free salad dressing is my favorite these days and after I shared the oil free mayonnaise recipe which you guys loved as much as I did, I made slight variations and used the oil free mayonnaise as a spread for sandwiches, parathas and as an oil free dressing for weight loss salads. The healthy fats in this dressing helps to make this salad nutrient dense. I have created a playlist for the recipes I made using this oil free mayonnaise which I have titled oil free mayonnaise recipes. Links will be updated below this video and also at the end of the video. So please do check it out. To make boiled vegetable, I am using a steamer to steam the vegetables and in the steamer I have already added some vegetables. I have sliced 2 medium sized carrot lengthwise like this, 15 beans again I have sliced it into lengthwise, 1 cup of broccoli and 1 cup of cauliflower. I have sliced both into bite sized pieces. I am also using half an ear of sweet corn. Since it is in season I am using sweet corn. Instead of sweet corn you can use about 1 cup of sliced sweet potato or even 1 small medium ordinary white potato. You can also use any seasonal vegetable of your choice. Now once the steam comes reduce the flame to the lowest and allow it to steam for about 10 minutes. I don't like to cook it for longer time since I like the vegetables with a slight crunch. So for that it will take anywhere between 7 to 10 minutes. Now while the vegetables are getting cooked let's make the salad dressing. For that I have already soaked 10 cashew nuts in my small chutney grinder and after 10 minutes I am discarding the water. I have already shared a vegan oil free cashew mayo and you guys seem to love the recipe. Some of you had doubts regarding the use of apple cider vinegar in that particular recipe. So if you don't have apple cider vinegar you can use any non-synthetic vinegar. Vinegar has some healthy gut friendly bacteria. So when you are using good quality apple cider vinegar which has the mother it actually helps to balance your pH level. So try to use good quality vinegar and try not to use synthetic vinegar. So this is the reason why I am using good quality vinegar in my recipes. Now some of you wanted to know other alternative for vinegar. So instead of vinegar you can use lemon juice but vinegar does give a nice flavor to the recipe. So if possible try to use vinegar. And now I am adding in a couple of tablespoons of water into this. So I have added 3 tablespoons of water, 2 cloves of garlic, half tablespoon of apple cider vinegar. Always try to use apple cider vinegar which has the mother as it has gut friendly bacteria. Juice of half a lemon, half teaspoon freshly ground black pepper powder, 3 4th teaspoon pink Himalayan salt. Now blend this for about 1 minute or until it is thick and creamy. Ok now the cashew mayo is ready. It is thick and creamy. Now the reason why I used little extra salt and pepper in this salad dressing is because we do not use salt or pepper when steaming the vegetables. So that is the reason why I used little extra salt and pepper. It is exactly 10 minutes now and I am turning off the steamer. And let's just open it and see how the vegetables are looking. Now I am just checking with a fork and the vegetables are nicely cooked. Like I mentioned it does have a slight crunch. And now let's assemble the salad. Now what I have done is I have lined a plate with lettuce leaves and I am assembling the vegetables over the lettuce leaves. So I have assembled all the steamed vegetables onto the plate and now I am drizzling in the oil free salad dressing. About 2 tablespoons of salad dressing would be ideal. 1 tablespoon salad dressing contains just 36 calories. And my healthy oil free vegetable salad is ready to serve. Enjoy this salad as a wholesome and filling and nutrient dense meal for dinner. So guys do try this recipe and let me know how this turned out.
