Russians LOVE salad. And by "salad", they don't mean the green stuff with lettuce and tomatoes that Americans think of :) They mean something more akin to American potato salad.
I realized the other day that I could actually make the most famous Russian salad on the Whole30. It is called "ahlivay" or "stolovoi" salad. It's like a glorified potato salad. In typical Russian fashion, you are supposed to dice everything in perfect, painstaking small pieces! It takes forever! But the result is good :)

Recipe:
Dice:
- 8 medium sized cooked potatoes
- 2 medium sized cooked carrots
- Whole30 approved ham
- 3 boiled eggs
- 1/2 an onion
- a bit of green onion
- 4-5 dill pickles
Mix all of this with salt, pepper, homemade mayo (from Day 1), and some canned peas. And there you have Russian food!
We ate it with delicious baked wings and salad.
