Like all social networks, TikTok is full of recipes that promise delicious results with apparently simple preparations. What are findings? What are a trick? Pasta baked with tomato and feta, cereal pancakes or cloud eggs have already passed through the El Comidistest testing laboratory, and today it is the turn of the salads.
We have tried four of the most viral ones: the green goddess salad, the lettuce chips, the Chinese cucumber salad and the vegan pasta salad with herb dressing. Two are good, and the other two… let’s say they haven’t lived up to expectations. If you want to know which ones, watch the video above.
