Side Salad Recipe

For this Beilagensalat recipe, you will need some fresh vegetables like cucumbers, tomatoes, and bell peppers. Make sure to wash and chop them into bite-sized pieces. I never knew there were so many different types of salads, back in my day we just had iceberg lettuce and maybe a radish if we were feeling fancy.

Next, you'll need to make a dressing for the salad. In a small bowl, mix together some olive oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar. Whisk it all together until it is well combined. I remember when my daughter would eat pureed carrots and peas, now she's making gourmet dressings like a pro.

Combine the chopped vegetables and dressing in a large bowl and toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated. Let the salad sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. I always used to joke that she was a messy eater as a baby, and now I can see that she's inherited my love for making a mess in the kitchen.

Finally, transfer the Beilagensalat to a serving dish and garnish with some fresh herbs like parsley or dill. This salad is a perfect accompaniment to any meal, adding a burst of freshness and color to the plate. My daughter may grumble at me for being a reluctant cook, but I know she appreciates the effort I put into making this recipe. It may not be perfect, but it's made with love.
