Crunchy Rainbow Salad

Hello #LoyalRoyals

When you just can’t be bothered to cook, yet desperately need something nourishing, this rainbow salad will definitely do the trick. It’s a firm Palace favourite because it’s fuss-free with plenty of nutritional kudos on account of the raw veg. The hummus and the cottage cheese provide that little bit of luxury. In fact, it’s a great way to get friends and family who dismiss salads as ‘rabbit food’ to reconsider and dig in.

The wow factor comes from keeping the ingredients separate (arrange them on the plate, rainbow-style), picking and choosing each mouthful, then dressing with plenty of hummus or cottage cheese.

Give this bowl of goodness a try!

So much love from us to you
