Vinaigrette salad is popular both on the Lenten table and on ordinary days. We consider it a storehouse of vitamins, because there are no harmful additives and even the usual mayonnaise sauce. And this is true for both rural and urban residents, who, due to their lifestyle and place of residence, do not always receive the required amount of vitamins and are more poisoned by the environment. Think it's time to eat healthy food, at least once a week.
True, for some reason it turns out that you cook it quite a bit, but you still get a bowl of salad. If you also have proportion failures, then reduce the ingredients below by half.
- Recipe for a classic vinaigrette with cabbage
How to make a vinaigrette salad with green peas and beans
The vinaigrette recipe below has collected all the products that are considered an integral part of this salad: canned peas, pickled vegetables, beets. But we will also add beans to it, because it will give tenderness to the whole dish and increase its nutritional value.
Using this recipe, you can not cook a full dinner, but serve only vinaigrette and croutons.
And, if you are a lover of canned beans, then read, which I dedicated to salads with its content.

- 2 boiled beets
- 2 boiled potatoes
- 1 head of onion
- Sauerkraut - 300 g

Carrots, beets and potatoes are best baked in foil. So you save more beneficial trace elements in these vegetables. If you think that the beetroot is not cooked, then pull it out of the foil and dip it in cold water for about ten minutes. So she will get along.
The same can be done with undercooked beets. In cold water, she miraculously manages to become softer.
Grind and mix the vegetable component.
Cabbage needs to be cut if you have it chopped into long strips.
Sprinkle everything with finely chopped fresh herbs and enjoy a healthy dinner.
Classic pea salad recipe
The classic ingredients of vinaigrette are beets, peas and pickles. So, not everyone likes pickles with sauerkraut. For them, as well as for those who want to modernize the classic salad recipe, I suggest replacing the pickled cucumber with a fresh one. If you want a classic recipe, then just use the same proportions of ingredients, but use pickles.
By the way, below is the amount of products for three servings, if you need more, then double all proportions.
Ingredients:
- 2 beets
- 1 carrot
- 2 potatoes
- 1 fresh cucumber
- 0.5 cans of green peas
- Salt to taste
- Corn oil
Cool the boiled vegetables and chop them into cubes.
My cucumber and cut. If cucumbers are not seasonal, then it is better to peel them, in order to avoid any harmful carcinogens getting into the food.
Drain the water from a jar of peas and mix with the entire vegetable mass.
Salt a little and season with corn, olive or vegetable oil.
To give this version of the salad salinity, you can add more olives or black olives.
Recipe for a classic vinaigrette with cabbage
Usually housewives prepare vinaigrette in three versions: with pickled cucumber, with sauerkraut, combining both ingredients. By the way, we use the third cooking option at home.
But there are a lot of recipes, so I’ll tell you how not to use pickles and get a delicious dish.
Ingredients:
- 2 beets
- 1 carrot
- 3 potatoes
- Sauerkraut
- 1 pickle
- 0.5 cans of green peas
- green onion feathers
- Salt, vegetable oil
Boil vegetables. But make sure they don't get overcooked.
It happens that the potato variety is very starchy, then make an aqueous solution with an acid, for example, acetic acid, and boil the tubers in it.
Cabbage needs to be squeezed and washed a little. But, if you like juice in salads, then you can not save it from excess brine, but put it immediately from the jar into a salad bowl.
We chop vegetables and combine them with peas, spices and vegetable oil.
Oil should be in moderation. If you do not add it, it will turn out dry.
If you are interested in new flavor combinations, then combine olive oil with soy sauce and a mixture of peppers. The taste will be completely different.
Classic salad with green peas and pickles
And this recipe is for housewives who cook without cabbage. It is better to look for crispy cucumbers, usually gherkins are such in the store.

Ingredients:
- 1 medium boiled beetroot
- 4 pickles
- 4 boiled potatoes
- jar of green peas
- 3 boiled carrots
- Green or onion
Cook vegetables until soft and leave to cool.
We grind them into the form that we are used to cut vegetables: straws or cubes.
Mix in a salad bowl and pour green peas. We have already drained the liquid from the can.
Salt and pepper to taste. The oil with which you season the salad is better to take fragrant.
You can vary all proportions because everyone has different preferences.
For example, I don’t really like boiled or baked carrots, so I put them in half the quantities. I'd rather put more cucumbers than her.
So you can develop your own number of vegetables used.
Vinaigrette in a new way: with peas, soy sauce and seaweed
And, of course, always old proven dishes are being modernized and interpreted by new generations. So, soy sauce has been popular with us for twenty years. It gives an unusual salty flavor to dishes, is available and has long been used in ordinary kitchens by ordinary housewives. Add healthy seaweed to it and get a very vitamin cocktail of vegetables.

Vinaigrette is a simple, tasty and healthy vegetable dish that can be easily prepared at home. Today, there are a huge number of options for making vinaigrette. The main ingredients of the dish are beets, potatoes, carrots, onions, sauerkraut, pickled cucumbers, canned peas. Vegetable oil is used as a dressing. Also, the appetizer can be supplemented with mushrooms, herring, beans, crab sticks.
Vinaigrette is very popular not only in the CIS countries, but also in Europe.

Due to the presence of vegetables in the recipe, the salad helps to normalize metabolism and has a positive effect on the gastrointestinal tract.
There is an opinion that the vinaigrette was created at the court of Tsar Alexander the First. A chef from France (Antoine Karem), who worked in the royal kitchen, saw how Russian colleagues poured vinegar on chopped vegetables and asked: “vinaigre?”, Which means vinegar in translation. Since the Russian chefs did not understand French well, they decided that this was the name of the dish, but Antoine only wanted to make sure that vinegar was used as a dressing for the preparation of the dish. Since then, vegetable salad has been called vinaigrette.
This is probably the most popular version of the vinaigrette, which is most often prepared by housewives in many homes. Vinaigrette is largely associated not only with beets, but also with the addition to it, in addition to potatoes and carrots, green peas and pickled or pickled cucumbers.

9. Stir all the vegetables until evenly distributed. Let's taste it, salt it.
10. We fill with vegetable sunflower, but you can also use olive oil. Pepper to taste, add fresh herbs.
If the onion is too spicy, the vinaigrette will be bitter, and the unpleasant taste will pass to other vegetables. To prevent this from happening, the vegetable can be cut, put in a sieve or in a colander, scalded with boiling water from a kettle. But add it to the salad only after it has completely cooled.
Beets boil for a long time, but do not want to become soft? If more than a minute of cooking has already passed, you can drain the boiling water and put the beetroot under a stream of cold water, after half an hour the vegetable will reach full readiness.
Fresh vinaigrette is not very tasty. That is why pickles and pickled vegetables are always added to the salad. But it happens that they do not give the desired acid, or they are quite insipid in themselves. In this case, pickling onions will help improve the taste. The vegetable must be cut, poured with an acetic acid solution, let it brew, then squeezed and added to the vinaigrette.

So, let's start cooking:
First of all, cut the beets into medium-sized cubes, add a little sunflower oil and mix. Such a procedure is necessary so that the beets do not give juice, which will then color the rest of the ingredients, and the dish will turn into a burgundy mass.
Then we cut the carrots into cubes of the same size.
Cucumbers will be next, but before cutting them, we first rinse with water.
Then add sour cabbage (we wash and squeeze very sour cabbage).
