A mixed salad usually combines leafy greens with vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumber, or carrots, but there is no fixed recipe. The ingredients vary by season and region, so use crisp vegetables that work well together.
To make a mixed salad, wash and dry the vegetables, tear or chop them into bite-size pieces, and toss them in a bowl. Add the dressing just before serving so the leaves stay crisp rather than turning limp.
Keep a mixed salad dry and add its dressing only at the last moment. Dry washed leaves thoroughly, store them separately from juicy chopped vegetables when preparing ahead, and avoid leaving dressed salad at room temperature.
Yes, a mixed salad can be made without lettuce; use spinach, rocket, cabbage, or a combination of crunchy vegetables instead. Choose ingredients with different textures, and add dressing shortly before serving to keep them fresh.
Undressed mixed salad keeps best in a covered container in the refrigerator and should be eaten promptly while the vegetables are crisp. Once dressed, it softens quickly, so refrigerate leftovers and discard them if they smell or look spoiled.
No, freezing is not suitable for most mixed salads because lettuce, cucumber, and tomatoes turn watery and limp after thawing. If you have extra vegetables, freeze only ingredients that tolerate freezing and use them later in cooked dishes.
A simple vinaigrette of olive oil and vinegar or lemon juice suits mixed salad without masking the vegetables. Whisk the dressing separately and add only enough to coat the leaves lightly; extra dressing can make the bowl soggy.
Add a source of protein such as beans, chickpeas, egg, tofu, tuna, or grilled chicken to turn mixed salad into a more substantial meal. Put warm ingredients on top just before serving so they do not wilt the greens.
Mixed salad pairs well with grilled fish, roast chicken, sandwiches, pasta, or a hearty soup. Its fresh vegetables provide contrast alongside richer mains; choose a dressing that complements the seasoning of the rest of the meal.
Yes, mixed salad can be part of everyday meals and is an easy way to include a variety of vegetables. Rotate the ingredients and add a satisfying protein or grain when serving it as a main dish.

Mixed salad brings together raw vegetables, often leafy greens, tomato and cucumber, with other seasonal ingredients depending on what is available. It has no single fixed recipe or place of origin; the combination varies from home to home and across regions.
It is commonly served as a fresh side with lunch or dinner, or made into a light meal with a more substantial topping. The vegetables give it a crisp texture and clean, refreshing taste. It is low in calories and provides fibre; a 100 g portion has 22 kcal. Add dressing just before serving to keep the leaves crisp, and pair it with beans, grains or grilled food if you want a more filling plate.
