100 g of Mixed Vegetable Salad has 45 calories. It contains 8.2 g of carbs, 1.6 g of protein, 0.5 g of fat and 2.7 g of fiber. Its 320 µg of Vitamin A covers 36% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 20 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Mixed Vegetable Salad combines crisp lettuce, cucumber, tomato, carrot, sweetcorn and bell pepper. It has no single place of origin; it is a familiar, easy-to-assemble salad made with raw vegetables, often varying with the season and what is on hand.
The contrasting crunch and juicy, gently sweet flavours make it a refreshing side for grilled foods, sandwiches or a simple lunch. A light lemon-and-olive-oil dressing lets the vegetables stand out. It is low in calories and provides fibre; for a more substantial meal, add chickpeas or serve it alongside beans, grains or another source of protein.

A mixed vegetable salad commonly includes lettuce, cucumber, tomato, carrot, and bell pepper, with sweetcorn as an optional addition. Use vegetables that are fresh and firm, and vary the combination to suit the season.
To make a mixed vegetable salad, rinse and dry the vegetables, chop them into bite-size pieces, and toss them together in a bowl. Add the dressing just before serving to keep the vegetables crisp.
A simple lemon-and-olive-oil dressing works well with a mixed vegetable salad because it complements the fresh vegetables without overpowering them. Toss it through shortly before serving so the lettuce stays crisp.
Keep a mixed vegetable salad from getting soggy by drying the washed vegetables thoroughly and storing the dressing separately. Add chopped tomatoes and dressing close to serving time, since both release moisture.
Yes, you can prep a mixed vegetable salad the night before, but keep it undressed in a sealed container in the refrigerator. For the freshest texture, add the dressing and juicy ingredients shortly before serving.
Undressed mixed vegetable salad generally keeps for about a day in a sealed container in the refrigerator. Once dressed, it tends to soften sooner; discard it if its smell or appearance changes.
A mixed vegetable salad pairs well with grilled fish or chicken, sandwiches, and grain or bean dishes. Its fresh crunch also makes it a useful side for richer, warm meals.
Add chickpeas, beans, boiled eggs, tofu, or cheese to make a mixed vegetable salad more filling. These additions turn a simple side into a more substantial meal without changing how you prepare the vegetables.
No, the vegetables in a crisp mixed vegetable salad are usually served raw, after being washed and chopped. If you include cooked vegetables such as corn, let them cool and drain them well first.
You can use thawed frozen vegetables in a mixed vegetable salad, but they may be softer and release more water than fresh ones. Drain and pat them dry, and combine them with fresh, crisp vegetables.
