Mayonnaise is a very common product in the post-Soviet expanses, a legacy of the USSR, so to speak, because in those days many other sauces simply did not exist on wide sale. It was and is traditionally added generously to many salads. But even having undeniable taste advantages, this sauce - let's be honest - is not very healthy for health, and especially its “factory” version, and not the home-made form. Those who want to control their kilograms by eating wholesome and healthy foods will also have to give up high-calorie, too-fatty sauce. But fortunately, you can do without this ingredient quite easily: light salads without mayonnaise come to our rescue - an excellent alternative! This article is a kind of selection, where there are both “ceremonial” dishes and everyday options. And even dietary light salads without mayonnaise - with vegetables, poultry, seafood. They will allow you to implement any menu, filling your meals with maximum benefits.
The simplest recipes for light salads without mayonnaise
Yes, they exist in nature - amazing and delightful in their simplicity. And they can be made in almost a few moments if the declared components are available. Needless to say, their ingredients will by no means be rare and expensive, or some kind of delicacy (although they are incredibly tasty). Most are fresh vegetables, which are abundant in any kitchen and supermarket (market) during the harvest season. Here are some options.
Cabbage
Today, probably, everyone knows that it is not citrus fruits that are the true suppliers of vitamin C to the human body, but simple and cheap white cabbage. It also contains folic acid and a lot of fiber! The taste of fresh and young cabbage is very rich and pleasant. We’ll also add strong cucumbers, bright carrots, a sour apple, juicy and sweet peppers, the freshest herbs and a spoonful of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Since we are preparing a light vegetable salad without mayonnaise, we season everything with fragrant and aromatic virgin olive oil. Either flaxseed or cold-pressed sunflower. By the way, we also recommend avoiding vinegar dressing; as a last resort, use natural apple or grape balsamic.
Ingredients: half a head of cabbage, several fresh cucumbers, a couple of sweet bell peppers, one large carrot, a bunch of fresh herbs, a spoonful of lemon juice and a spoonful of vegetable oil, salt.
"Caprese"
Refined and at the same time simple, quite cheap and very tasty - all this is about the Caprese salad, which will become a real decoration for any table, festive or everyday. The preparation is simple: cut the tomatoes and mozzarella into slices, place them in a container in layers, sprinkle with basil leaves and sprinkle with olive oil (you can use flaxseed, sesame, and sunflower). And that is all. We are preparing a light salad, without mayonnaise. However, there is one rather interesting option - season with liquid honey and lemon juice. The solution is, of course, unusual, but worth a try.
Ingredients: half a kilo of large tomatoes (fresh), 150-200 grams of mozzarella, several sprigs of basil, olive oil, salt.
Greek
Telling how and from what you can prepare simple light salads (without mayonnaise, of course), you can’t do without mentioning Greek. Moreover, classical traditions do not at all cancel creative freedom. Traditional feta (very high in calories, by the way) can be replaced with other cheeses: feta cheese, Adyghe cheese, suluguni (tofu for vegans). Onions - leeks or white, red salad. The dressing can be extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, balsamic or natural apple vinegar. It is customary for us to cut the ingredients into cubes, season and mix. But the Greeks do it differently: they serve dressings separately, and coarsely chopped cheese and vegetables separately.
Ingredients: several fresh tomatoes, feta cheese - 150-200 grams, onion, one sweet pepper, pitted black olives, vegetable oil and lemon juice.
"Caesar"
You may be surprised, but this favorite dish can be prepared without mayonnaise. A light and tasty chicken salad will be a real decoration for your holiday table! Secret: to make the Caesar as juicy as possible (which is quite difficult to achieve if you boiled the breast - it is too dry), we will not use boiled meat. Cut the raw fillet into pieces and quickly fry (2 minutes is enough) in boiling oil. The fillet will turn out juicy, so the “lemon juice + olive oil” dressing will be quite enough. And fresh vegetables, crispy leaves of green salad or arugula provide the dish with rich taste and juiciness. Crackers with sesame seeds, garlic, eggs, which can be chicken or quail - well, just a feast for the stomach!
Avocado with squid
What other simple recipes for light salads without mayonnaise can you try for the New Year's table? So that everything would be festive and delicious? Take one ripe avocado, half a kilo of peeled boiled (or marinated) squid, freshly prepared crackers (half a loaf of toaster bread is browned in the same machine and cut), any hard cheese, lemon juice (1 spoon) and orange juice (1 spoon), a little mustard with spices . We cut everything and mix it - and here we have a fragrant, very airy, tender and festive representative of the glorious family of light salads without mayonnaise (see photo above). And believe me, on any holiday (including New Year’s) table this dish will not remain untouched for long.
Herring under a fur coat
We continue the holiday theme - and it is very extensive. All housewives probably know how to prepare such a familiar and traditional salad in the post-Soviet space as herring under a fur coat (although there are various variations of it). We offer another equally interesting method: cooking without mayonnaise. Yes, yes, this is quite possible. This is a lighter version of everyone's favorite holiday dish. Now it’s fashionable (in the sense of a healthy lifestyle), and some home cooks boldly remove fatty and unhealthy mayonnaise from the recipe, replacing the ingredient with sour cream and mustard sauce, and to give the salad an original look, they make it in the form of parts - separate portions, that is, they add classic layers not in large containers, but separately in cups. It will even taste better this way. All that remains is to decorate with herbs and serve on the festive table. And your collection of recipes with photos of light salads (without mayonnaise) will be replenished with one more type. In addition, the preparation of the dish (except for the dressing) remains unchanged: we lay herring fillets, potatoes, onions, carrots, beets, and eggs in layers. Well, in general, everything is as it should be.
With chicken and pineapple
Olive oil, soy sauce, wine vinegar (or balsamic) - from these ingredients we get a flavorful dressing that successfully replaces high-calorie mayonnaise and allows you to prepare this healthy salad. Or you can try adding a new ingredient - honey (liquid, freshly pumped out). Otherwise, the recipe will remain unchanged: take slices of chicken fillet and fry in a frying pan or grill over high heat. Next, take canned pineapple pieces, add ginger and lettuce, red onion and carrots, bell pepper and broccoli - you can take them in equal proportions. Mix together with the prepared meat in a deep container, adding the dressing mentioned above. And on top of the finished salad you can sprinkle crushed peanuts. This will add a special piquancy and culinary zest to the dish.
With crab sticks (shrimp) without mayonnaise
The recipe for “crab” salad is probably in every home cook’s arsenal. Some cheaper ingredients - crab sticks - are replaced with boiled and peeled shrimp, but this will make its cost more expensive. Otherwise, everything is according to plan: canned corn, egg, fresh cucumbers, onions.
Shall we try our delicious salad without dressing at all? Fresh cucumbers and sweet juicy corn will give him enough liquid so that the crab sticks are thoroughly soaked with it. So, as we see, fatty and familiar mayonnaise can be completely eliminated - without any harm to the taste. Try it - you won't regret it!
