Description

Minimal effort — excellent result. The recipe for "Ovcharski Salad" comes from sunny Bulgaria, and it gets its name from the Bulgarian word "ovchar," which means "shepherd." I can't quite say why this wonderful salad is called that, but one thing is clear: if a shepherd got hungry during work, this salad would surely satisfy his hunger and give him strength. Indeed, despite the absence of mayonnaise and other heavy ingredients, the salad turns out surprisingly filling and nutritious. And if you're already tired of all the usual salads, then let me tell you about this one. It can be served immediately.
