Healthy and delicious salad

Like every girl I like to watch my figure at times, this is when I don't want to eat a heavy meal. On those occasions I like to eat a salad, but I don't like to feel that I give up on a tasty dinner, so instead I try to make my salad delicious with some tricks. I'm going to give you one of my favourite salad recipes with two different dressings. I usually make this salad when I don't want to spend too much time preparing it, otherwise I'd make a caesar salad but of course that takes more time. I believe that if you are on a diet or just eat healthy, you don't have to compromise, because you can spice up a boring diet dish with some delicious ingredients. 

INGREDIENTS:

For the salad: 
200g lettuce
30g arugula (rukkola)
30g spinach leaves
12 cherry tomatoes
250g mozzarella or other cheese
5g (a few slices) ham 
1 cucumber
30g almond (peeled, sliced)
grated parmesan

1.Dressing:
50 ml olive oil 
10 ml freshly squeezed lemon (can be replaced by 20 ml fine vinegar)
1 teaspoon mustard
salt 
pepper 

2. Dressing:
30 ml olive oil
1 teaspoon of mustard
2 tablespoons cream fresh (tejföl) 
1/2 teaspoon worcester sauce ( can be replaced by fine vinegar)
salt
pepper

Get a big bowl and put the lettuce, arugula, spinach leaves, cucumber and cherry tomatoes in it. Then slice your mozzarella and ham and put those in the bowl as well. 

1.dressing: Pour your olive oil and lemon juice in a small bowl or glass. Then add the mustard and finally season it with salt and pepper.

2. dressing: Pour your olive oil and add your mustard, cream fresh and the worcester sauce in a small bowl or glass. Season it with salt and pepper.

Put the dressing on your salad and mix well.
Serve it on a plate and put the grated parmesan and some almonds on top of your salad and don't forget your choice of dressing.
(this salad makes 4 servings)
