My favourite salad dressing

I’ve been craving lots of yummy fresh food this pregnancy. I’ve been making myself a plateful of salad every lunch timne {and usually to go with whatever we’re having for dinner too!}. In this hot weather salad, houmous and oatcakes is perfect – light and filling. I try and make sure my salad is colourful – sweetcorn, beetroot, salad onions, tomato, bell pepper, cucumber. Topped with a little feta and some toasted pinenuts I don’t think I could ever get bored of eating this!

Somedays I just dress it with a splash of balasamic viniager, but right now I’ve been loving this salad dressing I make. Extra virgin olive oil, lime juice, honey and a pinch of cumin. So tasty. I mix equal parts oil and lime juice, with a teaspoon or two of honey and 1/4 teaspoon cumin. It keeps in the fridge for a few days, and a little drizzled over my salad makes it taste even more scrummy.

I think after this weekend at Camp Bestival, I’m going to be so grateful to get home and eat lots and lots of salad next week!! Incredibly grateful that this is what I’m craving to eat!

    Ooh I like the sound of this, I’m going to give it a go! By the way, we have the same retro dinner service (Bacchus by Kilncraft).

    Often I would not examine article on blogs, but I prefer to declare that this write-up pretty pushed everyone to undertake thus! Your way of writing has become amazed myself. Many thanks, really good write-up.
