Additional components for New Year's salad can be the following inexpensive and simple products:

We offer you to read several variants of such combinations in detailed separate articles.

- White onion - 1 pc. medium size;
- Hard cheese - 100 g;
- Canned pineapples - 100 g;
- Chicken eggs - 4 pcs.;
- Kiwi - 3 pcs.;
- Kari - 2-3 tsp;
- Mayonnaise - 250 g;
- Vegetable oil.
How to make an inexpensive, delicious salad
- Rub the chicken breast with curry, fry in a pan until tender and cut into small cubes.
- Finely chop the onion, chop the kiwi and pineapple into small cubes.
- Three hard-boiled eggs on a fine grater.
- First, quickly freeze the hard cheese in the freezer and cut it with a sharp knife into a small cube - about the same as kiwi.
- We lay the prepared components in layers:
- Layer # 1 = chicken + ½ onion + mayonnaise
- Layer No. 2 = pineapple + ½ onion + ½ kiwi and coat with mayonnaise on top
- Layer number 3 = grated eggs + hard cheese + mayonnaise
- Layer # 4 = Kiwi - this structural green layer was the basis for the name of the salad.
Agree, a very colorful result is worth spending a little money on - just 3 kiwi things. But due to them, a cheap salad acquires a pleasant sourness and an unusual look.
You can also enhance the flavor of the dish by actively peppering the egg and cheese layer. Make the new year easy to hassle, budget-friendly and bright in taste!
Options for making budget salads
Try to change the most familiar recipes for cheap New Year's salads, because who, if not you, is well versed in the tastes of households and friends ?!
Vinaigrette in a new way
For example, otherwise prepare a vinaigrette.
Add sauerkraut instead of cucumbers, and do not boil the beets themselves, but simmer - with carrots, cauliflower cubes and a small amount of finely chopped onion.
Celery cubes can also go there (half the size of beets and carrots). You don't want to add potatoes to such a vinaigrette, but boiled beans or sunflower seeds will come in handy in it. As a result - a new taste, a mystery of ingredients and no grandiose spending!
Inexpensive Crab Stick Salad
Look for fresh crab stick options. To do this, focus on them, removing other "heavy" components from the recipes - potatoes, eggs and meat.
One of the juiciest and cheapest options for New Year's crab salad:
- finely grated white cabbage,
- apple and orange, chopped into thin strips,
- canned corn,
- crab sticks, not very finely chopped.
Dressing = mayonnaise + be sure to pepper. You will need a Burner grater.
Simple and cheap sauerkraut salads
Everyone's favorite sauerkraut also comes to the rescue. It can be easily brought up to a festive level with an apple (thin straw), some corn, and some coarse nuts.
At the same time, fill with fragrant vegetable oil. An excellent combination of flavors will also be obtained if raisins, prunes, dried apricots are added to the cabbage. Note, expensive ingredients - in small quantities!
And if you recall the recipes of our grandmothers, then the 3 cheapest components (sauerkraut, boiled potatoes and onions) are an excellent base for a delicious winter salad, which will not disgrace the New Year's table if it is offered to a hearty hot meat - akin to baked chops or chicken legs.
This is another approach to choosing inexpensive salads for the new year: saving on the accompaniment to good and often expensive meat, we do not lose the general mood of the meal - how generous and rich!

Cabbage salad - tasty and healthy!
Cabbage salad with carrots
This cheap salad requires cabbage, carrots, sugar, lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and vegetable oil. For this dish, cabbage is chopped into thin strips, and carrots are grated on a coarse grater. Sprinkle the mass with lemon juice, add a little salt and sprinkle with sugar, knead it with your hands. After this procedure, juice should stand out, and the whole mass acquires a pleasant shade of orange.
After dressing with oil, the salad is mixed and served.
Cheap and garlic
In almost the same way as in the previous version, this salad is also prepared. Just before kneading, add crushed garlic to the mass. But sugar in this option should be abandoned altogether, or the salad should be seasoned with just one pinch, like salt.
You can fill the dish with both butter and sour cream or mayonnaise. It is recommended to decorate the top with carrot flowers or paths of finely chopped carrots, which scatter from the center, like rays of the sun.
Cabbage salad with garlic and beets
If you replace carrots with raw beets, then the salad will acquire some piquancy. Its color will also change, becoming amazingly pearlescent. Moreover, at any time of the year it is the cheapest salad.
Its recipe can be slightly diversified by making the dish composite: mash half of the cabbage with carrots, and half with beets. If you arrange these two different salads in a salad bowl in triangles, it will be very beautiful and festive. So, when choosing cheap salads for your birthday, you should not discount this recipe either.
Cabbage and apple salad
It is easy and cheap to make a vitamin salad that is perfect for dessert. The recipe for its preparation practically does not differ from the cabbage salad with carrots, which is replaced by an apple. But in this case, crushing the cabbage should be done before the chopped apple is added to the salad.
You can diversify the dish by replacing only part of the carrot with an apple. Or you can include other fruits in salad: bananas, oranges, tangerines or pears. And sweet yogurt or whipped cream is fine as a dressing.
Who said cheap birthday salads are bad form? Or maybe someone doubts that a sweet salad decorated with orange slices and berries, fresh or candied, will be in demand at the festive table? Try it yourself and make sure that this will be the first salad bowl free on the table.
Garlic salads
Besides cabbage, garlic goes well with carrots, cheese, boiled beets, hard-boiled eggs and other ingredients. Rarely does a hostess refuse to put spicy garlic salads on the table - cheap and tasty, but so adored by everyone!
Everyone knows garlic and carrot salads dressed with mayonnaise or sour cream. Beet-garlic salads are not inferior to them in fame. Moreover, beets with garlic are often "invited" by ground nuts and prunes.
Mistress salad - tasty, beautiful and spicy
They can decorate salads cheap and tasty if prepared with desire. This recipe is as simple as any of the previous ones. The dish differs in that several different salads are laid out in layers:
- a layer of carrot and garlic with dressing;
- layer of cheese and garlic with dressing;
- a layer of beet-garlic with dressing.
If desired, you can add ground nuts to the cheese mass, and raisins and prunes to the beet-garlic mass.
Salad "Kiss of a mistress", or "French mistress"
This salad is as piquant as the previous one, which is called "The Mistress". The very name of both salads contains some kind of duality: the sweetness of passion and the bitterness of separation, the impossibility of being together. Likewise, there is such a striking difference in the ingredients and layers of this dish.
Prepare "Kiss of a mistress" in the same layers as just "Mistress". Only the layers are slightly different:
- bitter layer - beet-garlic;
- the layer is sweet - carrot-raisin;
- piquant layer - cheese-nut.
Sprinkle the top of the dish with grated cheese and sliced cucumber. You can decorate with herbs or finely chopped carrots. Flowers from boiled beets and carrots will also look charming in a salad bowl on a festive table.
Daikon salads
The advantages of daikon are that it is cheap to cook with. In addition, this root vegetable has excellent cleansing properties, a piquant taste and is extremely rich in vitamins. Daikon goes well with a wide variety of vegetables and even fruits, so the range of its use in this area is very wide. Very often, it is these light and cheap daikon that are used for weight loss that can help the hostess diversify not only the everyday menu, but also prepare a creative dish for the festive table.
Daikon salad with carrots and apples
Even a teenager can make such a salad. The main thing in it is the ability to use such a simple device as a grater.
Apples, carrots and daikon are crushed, slightly salted and a dressing is added to the mass: sunflower oil, sour cream, mayonnaise or homemade sauce. Mix everything - the dish is ready!
Another salad is prepared according to the same recipe, in which the apple is replaced with pickled or pickled cucumber. You can even get by with just carrots and daikons, but a salad with three ingredients has a wider palette of flavors. Such a dish with crab sticks is especially tasty - it immediately becomes Japanese!
Slimy salad
Especially for those who want to lose extra pounds, there is this recipe in the world. Cooking "Slimy" is as easy as all the previous salads.
The ingredients for this dish are:
- raw carrots;
- fresh cucumber;
- daikon root;
- one hundred grams of spinach;
- vegetable oil;
- salt.
The cucumbers are finely chopped, and the daikon and carrots are chopped on a coarse grater or cut into tiny strips. Spinach is cut gently. If a young carrot is used, which has preserved fresh greens, then it is recommended to use it in a salad - there are a lot of useful substances in carrot tops: trace elements and vitamins.
Pohudeyka salad should not be seasoned with mayonnaise or sour cream, just sprinkle it with wine or apple cider vinegar. Lemon juice is also suitable for this purpose.
Fresh cucumber salads
Remembering the recipes for simple and cheap salads in the summer, you cannot miss cucumber dishes. Actually, these recipes are perfect for winter, because fresh cucumbers can be replaced with pickled or pickled ones.
Corn Crocodile Salad
For this cheerful dish, you will need to chop fresh cabbage, add salt and knead it. Add finely sliced fresh cucumber and canned sweet corn to the mixture.
A sour apple grated on a coarse grater perfectly sets off the taste of any salad. To taste, put greens in it: dill, parsley, spinach, green lettuce. They fill it with oil.
In order not to disagree with its appearance, it is appropriate to hoist a vegetable figurine on top of it - a crocodile made from a cucumber.
You can put the salad in a herring pot - it has an oval oblong shape. The mass can be easily shaped into a crocodile, and the salad can be covered with cucumber rings on top. Reptile eyes can be made from corn kernels, or you can use olives.
Vitamin salad "Sunny Cocktail"
This salad is best prepared in summer or closer to autumn, when all the ingredients in it are natural, grown in our gardens and vegetable gardens, and not brought from somewhere. After all, then each component contains a particle of the sun, which is why the dish is called “Sunny cocktail”.
In addition to cucumbers, this salad contains cabbage, raw carrots, apples, tomatoes and bell peppers. Onions can be used both onions and green ones - whoever likes which one better. Greens are also added according to taste.
Cabbage is sliced into thin strips of noodles, cucumbers are cut into strips. Before slicing, it is recommended to peel the apples and cut them into cubes. Cut tomatoes into slices, pepper into half rings. Carrots are best grated coarsely or chopped into thin strips.
How to cut onions - each housewife decides for herself. In some families, large half rings are preferred, in some - finely chopped onions. Others ignore this delicious and wholesome ingredient altogether - but this is their right. You need to fill the salad with apple or wine vinegar and oil.
Salad decorations
Boiled eggs can be used as a decoration for the dish. It is easy to cook mushrooms from them and make cute mice, boats or snowmen.
You can also use grated cheese, sprinkle the top of the dish, and make an imitation of grass from the green onions.
From the halves of boiled eggs, swans are perfectly obtained if another cut is made on them, parallel to the main one. Cutting off strips from the other halves, on one side of which to cut out oval thickenings, swan necks are laid out of them, and beaks are laid out from pieces of carrots.
The cheapest and healthiest foods in the middle lane are cabbage, beets, carrots, daikon, radishes and onions. This is probably why salads from them are the cheapest and healthiest. But in the summer, tomatoes and cucumbers, radishes and green salad are added to these vegetables. And it is so important to enjoy this gift of summer and autumn to the very top of your head, so that you have enough vitamin reserves for the whole winter.
