Delicious, Hearty & Healthy Salad

Yum, I must admit- this is one of my all time favourite salads- It is so packed full of protein that it keeps you full for ages- great for lunches!


You will need: 
Cous Cous
Red Onion
Carrot
Celery
Tomatoes
A Can of Mixed Beans
sunflower & sesame seeds
A Can of Tuna
Feta Cheese

Soak the Cous Cous in a little boiling water. Leave for a few minutes until it has soaked up all the water and fluff it up with a fork. Chop up the celery, carrots, red onion and tomato. Add all of the above to the cous cous and prepare the vinaigrette.
For this you will need a few tablespoons of Olive Oil, a teaspoon of wholegrain mustard, red wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar and lime infused Olive Oil.( A friend recently got me onto this and I must say its well worth the price you pay for it- you only use a small amount at a time so it lasts ages and makes any salad taste incredible!) Put into a jar and shake up well. Sprinke with sunflower and sesame seeds and enjoy the energy this salad gives you :)
