The Three P Salad - Potato, Pineapple and Peas Salad

The Three P Salad - Potato, Pineapple and Peas Salad




This is my special salad where I have wrapped potatoes, pineapple and peas along with bread croutons using chia seeds and walnuts for their nutty flavor, rose petals for looks and pleasant rose taste, spiced it with peppers and oregano in a creamy dressing of mayonnaise and cream.

Chia seeds have many health benefits and are also better than flax seeds. Here is the link if you want to know more about chia seeds -http://healthyeating.sfgate.com/top-10-health-benefits-chia-seeds-6962.html
