Salad with squid
Description
The salad is quick and easy to prepare. The classic "Caesar" recipe is often enhanced with various additions—chicken, ham, bacon, different vegetables, and even fruits. Seafood is also commonly added to this salad—shrimp, crab meat, caviar... In my opinion, one of the best options for seafood lovers is a simple Caesar salad with squid. It won't take much time or effort, and the dish will turn out truly impressive. The main thing is not to overcook the squid so they retain their tender texture. Other than that, even a child could handle it. The salad is ready to serve.
