Watermelon Slice

It is unlikely that you prepared this salad for the festive table. This is a real work of art. We will need: two breasts, fresh champignons, two eggs, onions, one hundred grams of cheese, dill,cilantro, mayonnaise, fresh cucumber, tomato, olives.

Boiled meat is divided into fibers. Fry onions in vegetable oil along with mushrooms. Boiled eggs need to be grated. We do the same with cheese. We connect all the components together, add mayonnaise, greens.

Put the resulting mass on a crescent-shaped dish to make it look like a watermelon slice. We shred the cucumber with very thin straws, like Korean carrots. Cut the tomatoes into small cubes. We make a green watermelon peel from a fresh cucumber, put tomatoes in the center. Cut olives in half and imitate seeds. Such a cute salad will be highly appreciated by your loved ones.
