Sudden dear guests or household members starving after a walk require a quick treat, and in this case, salads come to the rescue in haste. A real woman can really make literally anything out of nothing, but we will leave aside the hat and scandals and get down to salads.

vegetable oil, lemon juice or vinegar, as well as mayonnaise or specially prepared dressings. For lovers of mayonnaise, the easiest way is to mix 2-4 types of products that suit your taste, season with mayonnaise and you're done. If mayonnaise isn't your favorite dressing, make salad dressings with vegetable oil and vinegar or lemon juice, or make dressings with sour cream or yogurt. Here are a few dressings that can, if not replace mayonnaise, then add an unusual touch to the usual salads in a hurry.

I call fast the salad for which no need to cook anything, right? Well, let's not count the eggs, it's fast.
And that means our strategy in this matter is: open jars, wash fresh vegetables, chop, season. All!
For each of the listed dishes, I would need no more than 10 minutes. I think you do too. The main thing is that you keep in your lockers necessary products for "guests on the doorstep".
Practice shows that salad creativity is the most harmless. It's almost impossible to mess up!
Decide what kind of salad you will cook in the event that a guest is on the doorstep, and buy some of this in advance.
From canned vegetables
If fresh stocks of vegetables disappeared an hour before the arrival of unexpected guests, we get out differently. We open the pantry with jars, the freezer with crab meat and ...
Salad 1
Ham (or champignons) and eggs cut into cubes, add red beans without liquid, mayonnaise, spices.
Salad 2
Finely chop 2 onions and a carrot and fry in a small amount of vegetable oil. This will take 10 minutes. We open jars of red beans and champignons, drain the liquid, combine with frying. Season with mayonnaise, salt and black pepper to taste.
It's very satisfying. Suitable for very hungry guests.
Salad 3
The most popular salad of corn and crab sticks can also be prepared in different ways.
Required products: canned corn and crab sticks or meat, onions and mayonnaise.
Variations:
- boil instant rice in bags, cool and add to salad;
- peel the apple and cut into small cubes
- chopped boiled eggs, add to salad
We open meat and fish cans!
Salad 4
Finely chop the onion, rub the pink salmon with a fork, three eggs and melted cheese on a fine grater. Season with mayonnaise, salt and pepper to taste.
Salad 5

Salad 6
melted cheese heat on low heat in a ladle, you can add a little cream or white wine. Pour the chopped ingredients with warm dressing (the consistency should be similar to mayonnaise). The salad is served warm.
From fresh vegetables
There is no need to philosophize here for a long time. We mix in random combinations tomatoes, cabbage, cucumbers, bell peppers, onions, garlic, lettuce, arugula, parsley, dill.
As a festive addition - grated cheese, cheese cubes, croutons, olives, black olives(not all at once, of course!)
It's all about the gas station!
You can, of course, just sour cream, mayonnaise or vegetable oil, and if you spend another 5 minutes for flavored dressing, and your salad will immediately receive the status of a festive one.
Here are three examples.
Salad 7
Almost like the Greeks. Lettuce, tomatoes, bell peppers, onions (if any, red), pitted olives, cheese cubes. Cut, put in a salad bowl. Do not grieve if some ingredient is not available. It will still be delicious.
Refueling(you can also safely exclude dry basil, balsamic vinegar and lemon to replace with simple vinegar):
- half a glass of olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sweet mustard
- 1 clove of finely chopped garlic
- 1 teaspoon balm. vinegar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon honey
- pepper, salt
- 1 teaspoon dry basil
Grind everything with a fork or beat in a closed glass with a lid, season the salad.
Salad 8
Green. Lots of greens, lettuce, cucumbers, green bell peppers. Onion rings. Sometimes they put boiled eggs (preferably quail) and green olives.
Refueling. It is called "Eastern":
- sweet soy sauce - 2 tablespoons,
- balsamic vinegar - 2 tablespoons,
- olive oil - 3 tbsp
Salad 9
Easy. Summer vegetable salad (tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, bell peppers, herbs) and cabbage salad are better not to fill with heavy mayonnaise.
Light salad. Light salad is a nutritious salad made from easy-to-digest foods, dressed with vegetable oil, yogurt, sauce or low-fat dressing.
Food has a direct impact on our well-being. If you want to feel lightness, energy, vivacity - eat healthy, light food that saturates the body with useful substances, but does not knock you out, leaving only one desire - to lie on the couch. Want to eat and feel comfortable and easy? Forget about heavy, multi-component salads dressed with fat mayonnaise. In fact, mayonnaise only spoils the salad, its benefits and positive effects on health. You will have to make do with healthier dressings - lemon juice, olive oil, quality soy sauce, yogurt, low-fat sour cream, etc.
Choose only healthy foods for your salad. Give up sausages and smoked meats, which are often put in salads today. Only fresh seafood, vegetables, tender low-fat cheeses, fruits. Do not overdo it with cheese and eggs. Remember that leftover food from the refrigerator is not healthy food. All products must be fresh. For the same reason, you don’t have to cook a lot - it’s always better to make and eat a fresh salad than to think that the day before yesterday will also help improve your health. In such a salad there are no vitamins, no freshness.
The way food is processed is also important. If you are preparing a fish salad, then you do not need to fry it - it is better to stew or boil it. The same goes for chicken if you decide to make a fillet salad. Vegetables for light salads are taken fresh. Just wash and cut them. Therefore, light salads are fast salads. Healthy food can save time! It's a pity that fast food lovers don't know about it!
Separately, we should talk about salt, which is a provocateur of heart disease, inhibits the removal of fluid from the body and increases appetite. Add salt in a minimal amount - only such a salad is light and dietary.
To enhance the taste of a light salad, which may seem a little bland, you can use the right spices. Good options are cilantro, cinnamon, ginger and, of course, ground black pepper. Spices, after all, not only enrich the taste, but also burn fat. The feeling of lightness will intensify every day! Many blame the spices for stimulating the appetite. If you feel hungry, just eat a couple of extra spoons of salad, because it is very low in calories. Compared to any salad dressed with mayonnaise, a diet salad is a feather!
