This is an easy salad that I kinda created during dieting times (it’s all the cakes, you see, they add up)

INGREDIENTS:

For the salad:

• Green bits (anything you like but I prefer various types of lettuce)
• 2 medium sized tomatoes
• 3-4 medium sized mushrooms
• Shrimps (this is an easy salad so ready-to-eat shrimps. I hear they are anathema to the foodies but hey ho)

You can also add anything else you like – e.g. cubed courgette, fresh peppers etc.

For the dressing:

This is an amazing dressing a la Auntie Sofia. It is GREAT with chicken or sausages where you just bathe the meat in it and then cook it. It’s also really nice for a salad.

• Olive oil
• Mustard (same amount as olive oil)
• Lemon juice (same amount as olive oil)
• Pinch of salt
• Oregano

METHOD:

Chop up all the ingredients. Actually it’s better if you just tear the green leaves with your hands. It saves time and looks better.

Use your green leaves as a basis and then add the tomato.

Add your mushrooms. If you don’t enjoy them raw (I do), just place them in a pan with a tiny bit of water and brown them a bit.

Add all the rest of your salad ingredients.

In a big glass add all the ingredients for the dressing and shake em (use a foamer if you’ve got it or just a little handheld mixer).

That’s it!
