Serves: 6
Prep: 15
Cook: 20

    A delightfully fresh and colourful salad bursting with flavour and high in fibre.  A great salad to complement your favourite main.

    Ingredients

    • 200g punnet of cherry tomatoes
    • 3 cloves garlic, whole
    • olive oil spray
    • 400g can borlotti beans, drained and rinsed
    • 220g tub of bocconcini cheese, sliced
    • 70g baby rocket
    • ¼ cup fresh basil leaves, torn
    • 1 tbs olive oil
    • ½ tbs balsamic vinegar

    Method

    1. Step 1

      Place cherry tomatoes and garlic on an oven tray and lightly spray with olive oil spray. Bake in a hot oven, 200°C for 10 minutes or until tomatoes are soft and shrivelled. Roast garlic for a further 10 minutes.

    2. Step 2

      In a large salad bowl combine borlotti beans, bocconcini cheese, rocket and basil.

    3. Step 3

      Once cooled slightly, add roast tomatoes and any juices. Combine olive oil, vinegar and mashed roasted garlic in a small bowl. Toss dressing through salad and serve immediately.

    Tips

    • If borlotti beans are not available, substitute other tinned legumes, such as cannellini beans or butter beans.
