This is a fantastic all-rounder to bring together for a quick midweek tea, but it’s also a showstopper on a sunny afternoon in your back garden with the barbecue going. I hope you enjoy this salad as much as we do in our own home.

Serves 2-4
For the salad
quinoa 50g
cold water 150ml
sunflower seeds 1 tbsp
linseeds 1 tbsp
cooked peas 100g (use frozen or fresh)
cooked broad beans 100g (use frozen or fresh)
nutritional yeast 20g
cucumber 100g, diced
baby gem lettuces 2-3, washed and roughly chopped
flat-leaf parsley a handful
fresh mint 2-3 sprigs
fresh oregano a good handful
basil leaves or soft herbs from your veg patch or herb garden a few
feta 200g, crumbled
