I made this delicious salad for dinner last night to have with chicken skewers. It was really easy to make and am looking forward to having leftover for lunch 🙂
I made this last night and loved it. We just had this salad as our main meal and I had leftovers for lunch today. I was worried that it was a lot of garlic but actually roasted garlic is delicious. A really tasty dish, that I will definitely be making again.
