Israeli salad

Israeli salad is a tasty and healthy dish that originated in Israel. It is made up of fresh vegetables that are chopped into small pieces and mixed together.

To make Israeli salad, you will need some really yummy and crunchy veggies. You will need tomatoes, cucumbers, and bell peppers. These vegetables are very colorful, and they are all different shapes and sizes.

First, you need to wash these veggies really well to make sure they are clean and healthy to eat. Then you need to use a special knife to cut the vegetables into tiny pieces. When you cut them, they make a lot of fun sounds like "chop, chop, chop!"

Once all the veggies are chopped, you put them in a big bowl. Don't forget to take out the seeds and the skin from the cucumber! You might need some help with that part.

After that, you can add some yummy things like olive oil, lemon juice, and salt. These things make the salad taste even more delicious.

Now you need to mix everything together really well. It's like playing with food, but be careful not to spill! You can use a big spoon or your hands to mix the salad until all the vegetables are coated in the delicious flavors.

Once everything is mixed, your Israeli salad is ready to eat! You can serve it with some yummy pita bread or eat it as a side dish. It's super healthy because it's full of vitamins and fiber that help your body be strong and healthy.

Israeli salad is really easy to make and it's a great way to eat lots of veggies. It's a favorite dish in Israel, and you can try making it at home too. It's a perfect dish to enjoy with your family and friends!
