1 bottle (medium) of Salad (no oil, no salt) (120 g) has 22 calories. That works out to 18 calories per 100 g. It contains 3.8 g of carbs, 1.3 g of protein, 0.2 g of fat and 2 g of fiber. Its 144 µg of Vitamin K covers 120% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 15 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Salad (no oil, no salt) is a simple mix of raw chopped vegetables, here typically crisp lettuce, cucumber, tomato and onion. It is an everyday side rather than a dish tied to one specific place, and leaving out oil and salt keeps the vegetables’ fresh flavours in the foreground.
The lettuce and cucumber bring crunch and coolness, while tomato adds juiciness and onion a little bite. Serve it alongside lunch or dinner, from a home-cooked meal to grilled foods, or add lemon and fresh herbs for extra brightness without dressing it with oil or salt. It is mostly a light, water-rich vegetable side, with fibre and very little fat, and suits anyone looking for a simple way to add raw vegetables to a meal.

An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

Salad without oil or salt can be made with lettuce, cucumber, tomato, and onion. The pictured combination is a simple chopped raw-vegetable salad, but you can vary the vegetables while keeping the preparation free of dressing, oil, and salt.
Keep salad without oil or salt crisp by drying the vegetables thoroughly and chopping them close to serving time. Tomatoes and cucumbers release water as they sit, so store them separately from the lettuce if you are preparing the salad ahead.
No, salad without oil or salt does not need a dressing to be served. Lemon juice, vinegar, or chopped herbs can add flavor without oil or salt; add them just before eating so the vegetables stay crisp.
Yes, you can prep salad without oil or salt ahead by washing and drying the vegetables and storing them in a covered container in the refrigerator. For the freshest texture, keep chopped tomatoes and cucumbers separate and combine everything shortly before serving.
Yes, wash lettuce and all other vegetables for salad without oil or salt under clean running water before cutting. Separate the lettuce leaves to rinse away grit, then dry them well; washing after chopping can make the salad watery.
No, salad without oil or salt does not freeze well. Lettuce, cucumber, and tomato become limp and watery after thawing, so make only what you can use fresh and keep any uncut vegetables refrigerated.
Salad without oil or salt pairs well with grilled chicken, fish, eggs, beans, or soup. Adding one of these alongside it makes the meal more substantial while the salad provides a fresh, crunchy contrast.
Yes, salad without oil or salt can form part of a full meal, but the vegetables alone may not keep you full for long. Add a protein-rich food such as beans, eggs, tofu, chicken, or fish and, if wanted, a grain or bread.
Salad without oil or salt can taste mild because it has no dressing or seasoning to amplify the vegetables. Use ripe tomatoes, fresh herbs, lemon juice, vinegar, or black pepper to bring out flavor without adding oil or salt.
Some vitamins in salad vegetables, including vitamins A and K, are absorbed better when eaten with a source of fat. Salad without oil or salt still supplies vegetables and fiber; having it alongside foods containing fat can support absorption of these fat-soluble vitamins.
