Raw veg treat

Thought to give a break from the routine, in fact heavy meals. So, I have decided to eat raw vegetables as our meal. The wonderful meal with a great colour combination.I chose Purple - red onion, Orange - carrots, White/Pale green - lettuce, Green - cucumber and again Red - cherry tomatoes. Cut them and sprinkle little bit of pepper and lemon juice as per your taste.
Instead of cutting them into circles, I have cut them ablong which gives a different shape and a different look. This not only gives healthy nutrients to the body, but also a great visual treat to our eyes.
