Simple and light in taste dish

I always enjoy eating simple and light in taste dishes. Not easy to find such dishes if eating out. The best option is to prepare these dishes at home. Luckily, i do enjoy prepare dishes at home at times and one of the dishes is cheese salad.

Ingredients:
- a single or 1.5 slice of cheese (non salted or light salted)
- one carrot
- one to two potatoes
- one small portion of broccoli

Skin all the carrot and potatoes. Then cut all the vegetables into cute size as shown in the photo below:



Soften the carrot and potatoes by boiling it separately and place it on a plate. Boil the broccoli for less than a minute and place it on the same plate. Heat up a frying pan without using any cooking oil. Add the boiled carrot, potatoes and broccoli into the frying pan and stir. When the pan is getting hotter, quickly add the slice of cheese into the pan and stop stirring. Off the fire when the cheese begins to melt. Stir fried it again briefly and put it into a serving plate. A simple and yet nutritional dish is done.

If u prefer it to be more crunchy, u may wish to mix some of your favourite corn flake with the vegetables. U can also add variety such as raisin, slice of tomatoes, apricot, slice of apple, strawberry etc to make it not only colourful but also improves its nutritional value. No bacon chips,please.

I used to eat the same boiled vegetables without any addressing but find it quite dry. Instead of using mayonnaise or thousand islands sauce as addressing, I try to melt non-salted cheese and mix it with the vegetables. It blended pretty well with good and creamy taste. :-)
