Method

With deep flavours of sun-dried tomatoes, a peppery hit of rocket, the creaminess of cannellili beans and topped off with cashew nut pesto, this salad is a true gem! With minimal prep time it's ideal for a quick meal. Find the recipe below...

  • In a bowl layer rocket, halved cherry tomatoes, chopped sun-dried tomatoes and cannellini beans and set to one side.
  • For the pesto grab a large handful of fresh basil, a glug of extra virgin olive oil, a heaped tablespoon of cashew nuts, a heaped tablespoon of sunflower seeds. Place all ingredients into a food processor with salt and pepper to season and mix. We prefer the consistency to still have a bit of bite, so blend until it's the consistency of a chunky peanut butter!
  • Spoon the pesto over your salad, mix well and enjoy!

It really is as simple as that. Give the recipe a go, share on social and let us know your thoughts!
