Super Yummy Mediterranean Salad (Akdeniz Salatası) Recipe 

Time is holiday time!

Anatolia (Turkey) is surrounded by seas (black sea, Mediterranean Sea, Aegean sea) on three sides, it is one of the world's most important summer holiday country for the sea, sun and beach. Many cities from the Mediterranean and Aegean regions are visited by millions of tourists from June to October. When the July month or August month comes, we and maybe most of the Turkish people think their "summer holidays or short summer breaks". Bye the way, after uploading this post, we are going to start our summer holiday.  

In this post, we are going to share "Healthy Mediterranean Salad" with you. In summer season, we prepare this salad alot. It is so light, healthy and delicious dish. Even it helps you to loose weight.      

Can You Loose Weight by Eating Salad During the Summer? 

When the summer comes, we consume different types of salads (vegetables salads, fruits salad etc.) alot. Salads of Mediterranean Cuisine (diet) are very unique, healthy and delicious. However what we eat is the most essential thing when it comes to losing weight, and this is the reason why most of us prefer to delicious salads, fruits or soup diets. No wonder, salads are far more healthy than any cooked dish. And, Salads of Mediterranean Cuisine (diet) are used to losing weight alot. 

Actually all dishes, side dishes and beverages in Mediterranean Cuisine (diet) are very healthy and delicious. Also Mediterranean Cuisine (diet) is a very important example of a plant-based eating plan that can help with weight loss. 

We consume "Mediterranean Salad" alot in summer seasons. It is our favourite lunch in summer. Even we eat it as dinner food. Its taste very different, very yummy and it is very healthy and unique salad. Hope you try this salad recipe! We are sure that you like it.

How to Make Mediterranean Salad (Akdeniz Salatası)!

This recipe is really so easy and simple. Also it is very colorful, healthy and unique recipe and it is our favourite recipe. We prepare it alot in summers. 

Cucumber, lettuce, parsley, extra virgin olive oil, vinegar and cheese are main ingredients in this recipe. But if you want, you can add different vegetables, herbs or your local herbs into recipe. We mostly chop the herbs or vegetables by our hands (rarely use knife) because of our salad doesn't turn to dark color.

    That orange tomato looks lovely, never seen that sort before.

  9. Loving this beautiful, colourful, and delicious salad - love all the flavours and textures going on! Pomegranate syrup is an interesting addition. Indeed, I have some Pomegranate molasses (which I assume quite similar thing), so I might use it in a salad dressing, too!

  25. Salads do well in both summer and winter. Due to their fiber and mineral content, we must get used to them, especially if they are as colorful as the one you have made. You know why?. Because they guarantee a plate full of vitamins and nutrients necessary for a healthy diet.

  42. This salad is absolutely gorgeous! I love a good salad, I just hate making them. As a consequence, I tend to make vats of salad that I eat over the course of a couple of days. I have all of the ingredients for this one, including fresh corn. The only thing I’m lacking is fresh dill. I have tried to grow that in the past, and it just dies off on me because of the heat. I’ll have to use dry. This looks so good that I want some now!
