Today I share a favourite recipe which is popular with vegetarians, but can be enjoyed by others too! The mix of ingredients works well, adding an extra zing for your taste buds!
Of course if you wish you could also serve it with chicken breast and steamed green beans... the choice is always left to you dear reader.
Ingredients
Serves Four
(12g carb per serving)
3 medium orange segments and juice
1 small bunch mint leaves, chopped
4 tsp white wine vinegar
3 tbsp olive oil
2 x 250g packs halloumi* cheese, drained
50g walnut pieces, toasted (or pecans work well too)
145g rocket, (arugula) watercress and spinach salad mix
Method
1. Heat a large griddle or frying pan over a high heat. In a large bowl, combine the orange segments and juice, mint leaves, vinegar and olive oil. Season, then gently toss together.
2. Slice each block of halloumi into 8-10 pieces, then griddle or fry for 1-2 mins on each side until charred and beginning to melt.
3. Add the walnuts and salad leaves to the orange and mint, then toss together. Top with the griddled halloumi slices and season with some black pepper.
*If you find Halloumi too salty you could try mozzarella as an alternative
