Salads and healthy eating go together really well but salads dont just have to e boring. We used the following ingredients to create a variety of different salads with the students taking two salads home to share with their family.
Ingredients were - different lettuces, carrots, celery, radish, cucumber, spring onions, new potatoes, peppers, kidney beans, chick peas, cherry tomatoes, tuna, feta cheese, edam cheese, home made coleslaw.
Here are some pictures of the students preparing the salads.












Recipe for coleslaw:-

1 white cabbage
4 carrots (peeled)
1 onion
Jar of mayonnaise
1 dessert spoon salad cream optional

Grate all of the above and place in large bowl
Mix thoroughly together
Add mayonnaise and salad cream if using
Mix thoroughly and add pepper or teaspoon of mustard if you want a hotter taste

You can keep this in the fridge for two days in a sealed container.

All the students enjoyed making a variety of salads and worked really well in the preparation of them.
