Fattoush Salad Edit
⠀
This is my favourite salad of all time, so I have been playing around with the recipe for years. Tweaking it to my personal taste.
⠀
I do love the bread but I removed it as I don’t really want to eat bread often. I also introduced some tangy fruit to meet my 10 a day quota while also enhancing the tangy tart flavours of this salad.
⠀
Goes really well alongside meat and fatty foods as it is very refreshing and contains many ingredients which help our bodies break down fats more easily.
⠀
Enjoy!
