This salad actually made me really feel like I used to be on vacation, the mixture of flavours from the saltiness of the halloumi to the refreshing style of the watermelon, cucumber and mint was wonderful!
I made positive to get some key vitamins in there too with a supply of protein from the cheese, 2 parts of your 5-a-day and a slow-release supply of power from the blended grains to maintain you fuller for longer – it is a key part that folks usually overlook, and should marvel why they get so hungry within the evenings after a fast make-shift salad.
