Some people hate coriander? Well I never!
Salad looks great, we are big haloumi fans in this house so I will be giving it a try!
Are you and coriander fans?
Yummmm! Just wondering what to cook this week – will add this to the list!
I’m curious; Does Lacey eat this salad?
She hasn’t actually. I think she’d like the chickpeas but not the onion and the rocket. I usually just do up a little side salad for her – avocado, corn, cheese, pineapple etc.
that looks AMAZING!!!
Yup, I totally get in food funks. When that happens, I tend to default to my patented low calorie grilled cheese sandwiches with some cherry tomatoes thrown on the side and call it a day. This salad looks so delicious! 🙂
Yum. That sandwich sounds perfect too.
For me it’s the other way around, I rarely have time to cook as much and as proper dinners as I’d like. Life starts to get a little boring with fish fingers and frozen meals every week… I’ve learnt to love salads, I usually go out and buy a big, tasty salad every day for lunch. But it’s all about the fresh, good quality ingredients that makes a good salad!
Definitely! Fresh makes it. Nothing worse than a limp salad.
I love Haloumi! So great in a salad! I love salads, recently my favourite has been Greek salad!
I had greek tonight. 🙂
Iv’e just been looking for some new salad recipe, this one sounds delicious, perfect timing! Thanks Chantelle. x
This looks delicious! Really healthy too! I’m looking forward to giving it a try – I love haloumi!
Haloumi is always a winner for me in salads. They may as well be best friends. And for a person who doesn’t eat a lot of cheese – this says a lot. I also have a haloumi on lentil salad topped with tomato salsa – a instant crowd-pleaser.
Looks yummy. I totally agree with your first words, too – sometimes I am too lazy/discouraged/busy/upset to think about new things to cook and I stay with the normal choices. When my other half asked me how many times are we going to eat chicken again this week something struck me and from now on I am trying to do sth different each day 🙂
YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!! I definitely get into a food funk! Especially after a big cooking week or so of baking or party cooking. Then it’s toast and weetbix for dinner for a few days!
I love making fresh salads like this one. I’m obsessed with haloumi at the moment too, so I will try this combo on the weekend.xo
Looks delicous! Will have to test it out 🙂
i’ve made something similar to this before and it was one of the most amazing tasting salads EVER. i love cooking haloumi on its own too, as a snack! 😀
that looks so yummy. Will have to give it a try – and yeah trying to think of something to make becomes so boring!
I can completely relate! Especially ever since I became Vegetarian food is sometimes a chore. I’m so relieved to not be the only one who considers toast or scrambled eggs for dinner when they’re feeling uninspired!
Definetely have food funks here where the temptation to do something that won’t get a ‘yuck’ response from a 4 year response is very strong. But I refuse to cave and give in. I love haloumi – and so does Miss A so this looks like a winner.
I’m a breast feeding momma who needs decent food but I am so unmotivated! I’ve eaten pizza three times this week :O I swear it’s just gunna be veggies and salad next week :/
This looks good and so easy, might bust it out this weekend! Thanks
