For lunch, I prepared my own simple salad. This is my favorite type which I usually eat when I don't feel like eating rice. This only has lettuce, salad tomato, Japanese cucumber, some nuts (almond and Walnuts), Chia seeds, raisins and slices of prunes and mangoes of course. For the dressing, I make my own calamansi, olive oil, honey, salt and pepper combination which is very easy to make.

While munching on my salad, I realized James (@panoramicview) bought me a dragon fruit last Friday and I haven't eaten it yet, I thought it would be a good addition to this salad because it has dark pink color.

Some of you might have already known how to peel a dragon fruit, but let me show you anyways for the benefit of those who don't know yet. Here's my dragon fruit, it costs Php 71.10 for this small piece.

To peel this, you'll just have to cut each end of the fruit and in the center with a knife like how it shows here below:

Then with the center slice, start peeling it! It's very easy and very efficient! You can even prevent yourself from getting stained with this technique!

Just continue peeling off all the way until you have the ball of dragon fruit. Sliced it to your preference.

Here's my salad now with the dragon fruit! Bon appetit!

I left some and put it in the fridge so I can eat it later at night. The fruit doesn't have a strong taste, in fact some would say it is tasteless but for me, I somehow find it a little sweet and very smooth when in the mouth. It melts easily but beware of its seeds, they have tendencies of sticking into your teeth so brush your teeth after eating this or gargle water!

I hope you learn something today and which you can also apply when you buy your own dragon fruit! They say this is a very nutritious fruit and it can easily grow here in the country.
