Continue ReadingMy go-to salad for entertaining or larger gatherings. I love it because it can be made in advance and assembled just before serving. The dressing made using ready made pesto sauce, making it super easy and delicious. The dried raisins contrast beautifully with the salty cheese. The lentils can be replaced with grilled chicken or prawns. I highly recommend not to skip the roasted tomatoes and onions because they add a lot of juicy depth and flavor to the salad.Can’t wait to see your creations!
