Russians have a lot of apples and due to the fact that Russians love to keep chickens, they have lots and lots of eggs. Also mayonnaise is the only dressing worth eating to a Russian, plus once again, peas are plentiful also. Put them all together and you have a salad that is cheap, wholesome and everyone will love. This salad is available year around as all the ingredients are always available. Russians like to use a variety of grasses or greens as some call them. Use anything from a mint, fennel or even lemon grass will make the treat even better…
Lets make Apple Salad with Eggs and this salad would be great with holiday dinners…
Ingredients:
4 apples cored and peeled… (Unpeeled for that more roughage look!)
3 tablespoons green peas…
2 eggs hard boiled and peeled…
5 tablespoons of mayonnaise…
greens or grasses as Russians call them… (Parsley will do.)
Make:
Cut apples into small cubes. Chop eggs finely. Add peas, mayonnaise (No not salad dressing, like Miracle Whip! No!) and stir thoroughly. Make sure apples are covered well and then they will not turn brown from oxidation. Decorate with greens if desired (I like lemon grass.) Then I prefer to chill for two hour, but a Russian will want to serve it at room temperature. It is fine either way…
Yummy for our Tummies…
