Original and light salads for birthday: a delicious selection

In anticipation of the solemn event, the hostess prepares the menu in advance and selects the original snacks. After all, every woman wants to surprise guests with a richly laid table, which will not only have hot dishes, but light salads. For a birthday, the assortment of products should be varied.

The most important thing is that after the event there is no weight in the abdomen, so you need to dilute fatty foods with light, low-calorie and healthy snacks. Let's start with salads, without which there is not a single celebration. The first option under the merry name "Goldfish" is a delicious light salad. The recipe reminds everyone of the well-known "herring under the fur coat" only in our case it is more refined.

Required components:

• Herring fillets;
• carrot;
• Apple green (2 pcs.);
• three eggs;
• beet;
• Potatoes (2 pcs.);
• Slightly salted salmon (any red fish can be used) - 200 g;
• Gherkins (5 pcs.);
• Olive mayonnaise;
• bow;
• vinegar;
• sugar.

Diced onion soak for half an hour in a marinade of vinegar, sugar, salt and water. Boiled vegetables: carrots, beets, potatoes grate. Similarly we do with eggs and apples.

Gherkins, herring and salmon cut into slices. We spread the products in layers in the form of fish: herring, potatoes, carrots, pickled onion, eggs, cucumber, apple, beet, salmon. All the layers must be lubricated with mayonnaise. From the olives you can make eyes, from green - fins.

Light salads for birthday can be prepared from any vegetables, fruits and low-fat varieties of meat. That's just the second recipe appetizers like gourmets, as in the composition there is both meat and fruit. The dish is called "Salad in Crimean".

Composition:

• Grapes-sultana-bunch;
• Fillet of chicken - half a kilogram;
• Two hundred grams of cheese;
• Cheese (200 grams);
• Walnuts (300 grams);
• Fresh cucumbers (4 pcs.);
• mayonnaise;
• Greens (coriander, parsley).

For this dish, choose grapes without pits. We cut the large berries into parts, leaving a few pieces for decoration. Grate the cheese in a separate container. Boiled fillet is divided into fibers. Nuts chop. Cut cucumbers into thin strips, potatoes into cubes.

Now proceed to the design of the salad, it must be laid out in the form of a grapevine - layers. The sequence of layers is as follows: potatoes, cheese, grapes, nuts, fillets and completes a layer of grapes. Do not forget to grease all products with mayonnaise. From the green make a stalk, imitating a bunch of grapes.

Many people think that light salads for a birthday should be strictly of dietary products, although this is a mistaken opinion. The main thing is not to go too far with high-calorie dressings and correctly combine the ingredients. Of course, you can simply chop tomatoes with cucumbers and serve on a festive table, but it is unlikely that guests will appreciate this dish.

After all, the celebration does not happen so often, and so everyone is waiting for some magic, unusual dishes with exotic contents in bright execution. It all depends on your imagination, you can make an original light salad from ordinary products. The recipe with the photo will show how to prepare a cheerful snack from a chicken called "Hedgehog."

Mass mix well and form a hedgehog out of it. Cover it with a mixture of grated cheese, protein and mayonnaise. Olive cut into two parts and simulate needles. We'll make eyes from peas. Very bright and cheerful was a salad.

Prepare light salads for birthday in the form of different animals, cartoon characters or any other objects. The filing is of no small importance. If you do not eat meat, you can easily replace it with mushrooms.
