The only thing crazy about putting granola on a salad? Just how tasty it is.
It’s deliciously sweet and nutty, perfect for adding a bit of extra crunch to a seemingly simple salad.
Will serve 2/3 as a side, perfect alongside salmon and new potatoes.
Ingredients
Salad
-
1 cup of frozen peas
-
1 handful mint, chopped
-
8 asparagus spears
-
Squeeze of half a lime
-
Olive oil

5 radishes, thinly sliced

1 mozzarella ball, torn into chunks

Large handful of classic Husk and Honey granola

-
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
-
1 tbsp tahini
-
1/2 tsp greek yogurt (depending how thick you want it)
-
A pinch of salt and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper

Juice of 1 lemon
Method
-
Add your peas and half your mint to a pan of boiling water and boil for five minutes.
-
Once boiled, drain through a size and run cold water over the peas until they are cool.

Scatter with the remaining mint and set aside.

Remove the thick end of the asparagus and squeeze over half the lime. Leave to sit.

When your asparagus are ready lay them on the top of the salad, cover generously with the dressing and scatter with the Husk and Honey granola.
