A great a salad packed full of raw vegetable, perfect for lunch or a light supper. Free from gluten, dairy and sugar.
Incredibly easy yet so tasty and healthy. It’s exactly the kind of lunch I feel like eating in spring and summer.
Feel free to leave out the chicken if you would rather it be vegetarian.
