For the recipe you will need a jar of regular sardines in oil. The oil itself for the recipe does not need to be used, but only canned. Sardines have a pleasant aroma and taste, so they are great for any salads. Also for today’s salad, take pre-cooked chicken eggs, potatoes and carrots. There are many Mimosa recipes with pink salmon, butter, cheese or apples, but today’s version is the easiest.
