Ingredients:
- ½ head lettuce
- ¼ head cabbage
- 4 medium tomatoes
- 2 medium cucumbers
- 2 medium carrots
- 5-10 radishes
- green onion
- 2 hard-boiled eggs
- 2 tablespoons parsley
- 2-3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2-3 tablespoons oil
Preparation:
- Cut vegetables (except carrots) into small cubes.
- Grate carrot and egg.
- Garnish with parsley.
- Combine lemon juice and oil, add to salad and mix well before serving.
