We’re levelling up our favourite summer lentil salad with the addition of halloumi! Cucumber, tomato, lentils and mixed salad leaves come together to form the base, tossed through herby pesto and vinegar, before we add the zesty fish on top. Chef’s kiss!

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.
