15 minutes

A salad of bananas, apples, and celery is an exquisite combination of fresh and crunchy textures, complemented by a delicate sweet-and-sour dressing. Legend has it that such fruit-vegetable combinations were popular in French cuisine due to the pursuit of flavor balance and health benefits. Apples add juiciness, bananas provide sweetness and softness, while celery adds a zesty crunch. The dressing made from sour cream and yogurt with lemon balm highlights the freshness of the ingredients, giving the salad a refined aroma. This salad is perfect as a standalone dish or a refreshing side, especially in summer. The ideal combination of flavors makes it a popular choice for a light and healthy snack.
