Hello everyone, I hope you are all well today...🙂
Sometimes, I crave for vegetable salad either as a main dish or an appetizer. We know that vegetable salad is a healthy food, and is packed with essential vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. So, it's better to have this kind of food in our diet. That’s why I made one today.
Let’s all take a look at how I did it.

Wash and clean the camote tops thoroughly, then cut.
Wash and peel the cucumber and cut it thinly.
