  • Toss the salad well before serving. Instead of small mozzarella balls, you can use one large ball, cut into cubes and added to the salad bowl.
  • Young cabbage is very good for you. It contains an enormous amount of vitamins and trace elements. Cabbage can flush toxins from the intestines, helping them function normally. Young cabbage is especially beneficial in salads, since it isn't heat-treated and so keeps everything most useful and valuable.
  • Mozzarella, in turn, also contains plenty of beneficial substances that have a positive effect, first and foremost, on hair and skin. The combination of cabbage and cheese in a salad is a true treasure trove of vitamins!
  • This salad can be a lifesaver when you need to make something quickly. It can go on a holiday table, where it makes an excellent addition to meat and potato dishes. It looks festive, elegant, and very appetizing. Enjoy!
