Many people neglect simple salads from a couple of ingredients, making a preference in the direction of only festive dishes with a large number of products. However, the main disadvantage of large-scale salads is that they are expensive. It is not always possible to use all the red fish or all the cheese in the salad. Therefore, the leftovers of products are long in the refrigerator and even spoil.
