Step 1:
How to make a Spring Breeze salad? Prepare the ingredients for the salad. We will need crab sticks, tomatoes, cucumber, canned corn, cheese, mayonnaise. You can also add dill (or other herbs) and garlic to the salad. In many recipes of this salad, garlic is mandatory, but I did not add it and did not regret it - with it, the salad turns out to be fresh and more suitable for the name.
Step 2:
Cut the crab sticks into small cubes. Drain the liquid from the corn.
Step 3:
Wash, dry and cut tomatoes into cubes. Drain the liquid released during slicing.
Step 4:
Cut the cucumber into small cubes.
Step 5:
Grate the cheese on a coarse grater.
Step 6:
In a salad bowl, combine crab sticks, tomatoes, cucumbers, corn, cheese.
Step 7:
Season the salad with mayonnaise.
Step 8:
Mix everything well.

It is better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See here interesting recipes for homemade mayonnaise.
Also, as a dressing, you can use not only mayonnaise, but also sour cream or natural yogurt. They can be taken separately or mixed with mayonnaise in any proportion to your taste - this will reduce the calorie content of the dish.

How to buy canned corn correctly? Be sure to check the expiration date on the jar. If the container is glass, carefully consider the grains. They should be the same size and color, solid and spotless. The composition should not contain dyes, preservatives and flavor enhancers.

How to buy crab sticks correctly? Be sure to pay attention to the expiration date of the product. Surimi meat (minced white fish) should appear in the list of ingredients in the first place. Important! Do not buy the product if there is frost on it. This is a sign of repeated freezing. Fresh sticks should be free of gray and yellow spots, elastic and slightly moist. If the product is sticky, it means it is spoiled.
