Ingredients

  • Apple: 2 red-skinned eating apples, cored and cut into slim wedges
  • Honey: 4-5 tbsp ready-made honey and mustard dressing, to serve
  • Celery: 2 celery sticks, cut into thin diagonal slices
  • Radish: 1 bunch of radishes, trimmed and quartered
  • Walnut: 50g shelled walnut or pecans, toasted and roughly chopped
  • Garlic: 1 x 170g ready-to-bake garlic bread
  • Chicory: 2 heads of chicory
  • Stilton: 175g stilton (or any leftover cheese)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven and cook the garlic bread according to packet instructions.
  2. While the bread is in the oven separate the chicory into leaves and toss in a large bowl with the celery, radishes, nuts and apples. Crumble the stilton in large chunks over the top.
  3. To finish the salad, cut half the garlic bread into the marked slices. Cut the remainder into chunks and toss into the salad with as much dressing as you like. Serve with the remaining garlic bread on the side.
