Salad Queen of Spades

A wonderful salad made with healthy ingredients! The Queen of Spades salad has the taste of an ordinary beet salad with mayonnaise and nuts, but additional ingredients, such as cucumbers, apples and prunes, surprisingly harmoniously complement this salad, adding special nutrition and light sourness. You can take pickled cucumbers, but still crispy market ones from a barrel are what you need! Prunes must be washed, and if they come across any seeds, they must be removed. You can take any apple, as long as it is juicy.

Lately I've been really liking salads with boiled beets. After searching a little on the site, I discovered a new recipe for Queen of Spades Salad. The result is a very good salad, an interesting combination of ingredients, quick to prepare, and goes well with many side dishes. Overall, I was very pleased. The only thing is that I don’t like apples in salads, so I excluded this ingredient.

I took the risk of making your salad. I weighed all the ingredients according to the recipe. What disgusting stuff this is! Have you yourself even tried what you suggest? Sorry for wasted time.
