We hope you find something here to your taste:
This salad is lovely for a light lunch and is best enjoyed with really fresh spears. Try the purple variety for a change.
This recipe is really easy and you can add your own ideas with different salad vegetables to suit your tastes. Cooking Time: 8 mins |
A fresh lettuce - chose your favourite or a range of fresh salad leaves(straight from the garden will always taste best)
16 - 20 thin asparagus spears as fresh as possible - a variety that eats well raw
small block of parmesan cheese to grate
2-8 tomatoes depending on their type (more small ones or fewer big ones) small tasty vine tomatoes will taste best
6 slices of salami
3 hard boiled eggs (peeled and sliced)
small tin of sweetcorn
A nice light mayonaise
Note : I would not recommend pre-grated parmesan
cheese, and if you've tried it and think you don't like parmesan cheese -
try the real thing and think again! The blocks seem expensive when you
buy them but the last block I bought for about £5 has lasted from Valentines
Day to mid June and is still going strong. The flavour is amazing.
