Warm roast carrot, quinoa and haloumi salad

Oh how we love this salad – it's colourful, healthy, goes with everything and balances two of our favourite things: sweet, caramelized carrots and salty halloumi. Add some fluffy, nutty quinoa and a tangy cider vinegar and lemon dressing and you have the complete package. Dress it up with a handful of rocket or baby spinach and extra herbs and call it lunch – or serve alongside a simple piece of pan-fried chicken or fish.  

To Serve

This salad is more than fine as it comes – but can be easily extended with rocket or baby spinach leaves, sliced spring onions and fresh herbs. We love toasted almonds – slivered or flaked – or pepitas sprinkled on top as well. Works well as a light lunch or supper on its own – or it can jazz up any simple grilled or pan-fried protein as a side dish.

* We don’t add preservatives or additives to our meals – we cook with the same real ingredients you would find in your home fridge and pantry. Some of these household ingredients do contain sub-ingredients, for example Dijon mustard contains sulphites and crushed tomatoes contain citric acid. We try to find products with as few additives as possible and always list every ingredient in our meals, both here and on the label.

Peel back the film and remove the sachet of dressing. DEFROSTED: microwave the salad for 2 minutes, mix gently then heat for a further minute. Stir through the dressing and add some extra salad leaves if you like. FROZEN: defrost the sachet of dressing in a bowl of warm water. Microwave the salad for 6 minutes, mix gently, then heat for a further 1-2 minutes. Stir through the dressing and add some extra salad leaves if you like. Alternatively, remove the haloumi and pan-fry in a little olive oil before adding it to the warm salad.
