Salad

Salad is a balanced serving of food, usually made with vegetables and other ingredients in a loose mixture. The healthiest salads are those with leafy vegetables although many variations could include beans, meats and eggs. Salads are usually served with a dressing of some sort, a sauce that complements the flavor.
