Guava Salad/ Seebe salad

Summer being season of fruits, you will have various fruits in your kitchen or garden if you have one. It is the time which makes us crave for light foods, salads or juices. Having plenty of salads, juice/ liquids or food that is light on tummy help us to be healthy and active in summer.

Guava is one fruit which is easily available in India and you can harvest plenty of them if you nurture one tree. It is nutritious and delicious too. Having a fruit of good size helps to fill stomach as it is rich in fiber, energy and it is loaded with vitamins & minerals. It is good source of vitamin B and C. It is good for diabetics as well. I am sharing a recipe of Guava salad for this hot season which is very quick to make.
I have tasted it recently in a family function lunch and I could not stop making it at home. This is such a simple recipe, where you have no elaborate process, no oil and not too many ingredients.
