SCRUMPTIOUS SALADS WEEK / RECIPE 1

This is a no-mess no-fuss recipe. All you need is Asparagus, gem lettuce, peas, mint leaves and some Parmesan.

The truth is I made a tarte and these were the left over ingredients, instead of overloading my tarte, I decided to make a salad with a little bite to it. I have to admit, it is now my favourite side dish.

a great source of nutrients, including fiber, folate and vitamins A, C and K

What you need:

• 4-6 Asparagus, raw
• 1 Gem lettuce, finely cut
• 2 tbsp FPeas (frozen is fine)
• Hand full of mint leaves
• 2 tbsp Parmesan, grated
• Juice of 1/2 a Lemon
• 1 tbsp Olive oil
• Salt & pepper to season

What you do:

1. Cut the raw asparagus into 3 pieces, or sliced them length wise
2. Blanche the peas, let them cool
3. Add the gem lettuce, asparagus and the peas in a bowl
4. Throw in a few mint leaves
5. Squeeze half a lemon juice
6. Splash a dash of olive oil
7. Season to taste
8. Add half the freshly grated Parmesan
9. Mix well and then add the other half of the Parmesan

Enjoy!!!
