Chef Meena wanted to make a low fat but a healthy snack for her kids.
She decided to make a vegetable salad that has no oil but is full of vitamins and minerals.
She opened her fridge and was thinking about which vegetable to pick.
“Pop” jumped Cathy Carrot.“I am rich in Vitamin A and I’m good for eyesight,” said Cathy Carrot. So, Chef Meena pulled out two carrots from the fridge.
As she was watching, she saw Trim Tomato rolling down towards her. Trim Tomato winked and said, “I am rich in Vitamin C and help to remove toxins from the body.” Chef Meena smiled and picked two tomatoes.
Cushy Cabbage danced and plopped herself into the Chef’s hand. “I have lots of Vitamin B1 and help to produce energy from the nutrients.”
Otto Onion peeped out. Onion said, “I have folic acid. I help to generate good red blood cells and prevent anaemia.”
Brisk Broccoli laughed and said, “I have more proteins than other vegetables and help the body to grow and be healthy.”
Cozy Corn joined the fun and said, “I have a lot of magnesium and help in blood glucose control.” Chef Meena took onions, cabbage, broccoli, and corn also from the fridge.
Chef Meena cut and chopped all the vegetables. And added salt, pepper, coriander leaves, and lime juice and passed on the delicious salad to the kids.
The kids enjoyed the wholesome and colourful vegetable salad.
