Goodness me I’ve been extremely lax with my blogging – I do apologise. I hope you’ll forgive me once you’ve tried this beauty!
1 1/2 chicken breasts cut into slices
3 rashers smoked bacon chopped up
1 Bag, Crispy Green leaf salad
1/2 of a bag of mixed Rocket, Spinach and Watercress
1 slice of bread (brown/white/seeded – whatever takes your fancy)
2 large dollops of ‘Low Fat’ Creme Fraiche
3 large slices of Soft Blue Cheese
half a finely chopped garlic clove
a small squeeze of tomato puree
- Pop all the green stuff into a colander and run cold water over it for 10 seconds or so
- Leave to drain
- Chop up the bread into small crouton sized squares
- Gently fry the bacon and chicken until they have some colour on them
- Set them aside
- Keep the frying pan on and add a little oil and gently fry the croutons until crispy and golden brown
- Set them aside
- Plop the dollops of Creme fraiche, the blue cheese, tomato Puree and garlic clove into a saucepan and heat up gently
- Keep stirring it until the lumps of blue cheese have melted, add some black pepper
- Put the green bits into a bowl
- Add the chicken
- Add the bacon
- Pour over the dressing
- Sprinkle the Croutons
Ok, so this isn’t the healthiest of salads, but it’s bloody gorgeous. You’ll get your greens and a good dose of scrumptious blue cheese as well!
Enjoy this one people
Just love this salad – sooooo not a healthy supper, but with enough salad leaves I almost believed it was. And anyway, it was just yummy. Thanks Bels. You might make a cook of me yet!
