Ingredients

  • 1 head romaine
  • ¼ small red cabbage
  • 1 medium red bell pepper
  • 1 small red onion
  • ½ medium cucumber
  • 2 medium carrots
  • 150g sweetcorn

Lemon Dressing

  • 2 tablespoon olive oil extra virgin
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • pinch salt
  • pinch black pepper

Instructions

  • Start by washing all the salad ingredients then use some kitchen towel to dry them. Finely slice the romaine, red cabbage, bell pepper and red onion then dice the cucumber. Add them all to a large salad bowl. If you have a julienne peeler, cut the carrots into strips or use a knife to cut them into thin strips and add to the salad along with the sweetcorn.
  • To a small bowl, add the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt and pepper then mix. Pour the dressing onto the salad and serve. If you are not ready to serve, don’t add the dressing and refrigerate the salad and dressing until serving.
