I suggest you try a warm salad of mushrooms and Peking cabbage. Minimum of products, fast cooking, affordable products, and most importantly very tasty.
Italian salad for a holiday or just for dinner, very easy to prepare, affordable and very tasty. Italians almost never use mayonnaise or sour cream, dressings are sauces based on olive oil. If you like mushrooms, then this dish is for you, any pickled mushrooms or assorted will do. Italians also serve garlic croutons with cheese to this salad.
