If you’re looking for a delicious and healthy salad recipe, you’re in the right place! This is a vegan twist on a classic Russian Olivier salad that’s packed with flavor and nutrients. This salad is perfect for any occasion, and it’s easy to make too!
The salad is made with a variety of vegetables, which means it’s loaded with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Potatoes, carrots, and parsnips are all a great source of vitamin C, potassium, and fiber. Green beans and peas are also great sources of fiber and protein, making this salad a filling and nutritious meal. Additionally, the olives, capers, and dill provide a burst of flavor while also offering health benefits such as anti-inflammatory properties and aiding digestion.
For the flavors, the combination of the vegetables, pickles, and marinated red pepper creates a perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavors. The vegan mayo provides a creamy texture while the dill and ground black pepper add a touch of freshness and spice. This salad is a great option for anyone looking for a tasty and satisfying meal that’s also healthy.
To make this salad, start by boiling the potatoes, parsnip, carrot, and red pepper (if not using roasted marinated red pepper) in vegetable broth and water. Once the vegetables are tender, add green beans and green peas and continue to boil for another 10 minutes. Then, remove the vegetables from the broth and let them cook for 10 minutes. Dice the onion, pickles, marinated red pepper (if not using regular red bell pepper), and olives, and mix them with the cooked vegetables. Add the vegan mayo, dill, salt, and ground black pepper and toss everything together. Chill the salad until you’re ready to serve.
