FIBRE VIT C GLUTEN FREE
450g baby potatoes
150g pot bio yogurt
1 tsp English mustard powder
1 lime, zested and juiced
1 red onion, finely chopped
400g pack turkey mini breast fillets
1 tsp rapeseed or olive oil
1 Romaine lettuce heart (200g), thickly sliced
½ x 85g pack watercress
2 green peppers, deseeded and diced
2 avocados, halved and sliced
150g black or red seedless grapes, halved
40g walnuts, broken into pieces
1 Boil the potatoes for 12-15 mins until tender, then drain and leave to cool a little. Cut the potatoes into thick slices. Mix together the yogurt, mustard and lime zest. Toss the potatoes with 4 tbsp of the dressing and 3 tbsp of the onion.
2 Put the turkey in a medium bowl and toss with the oil, then cook in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat for 10 mins, turning at least once until the turkey is cooked through.
3 When you’re ready to serve, mix half the lettuce, watercress, half of the remaining onion and 1 of the peppers in a bowl. Top with half the potatoes, and slice and pile on half the turkey. Toss the avocado with a good squeeze of lime, then scatter half on top with half the grapes, and half the walnuts. Spoon over half of the remaining dressing.
