Ingredients

300g Tenderstem^® broccoli
1 tbsp pumpkin seeds
4 slices watermelon, cut into chunks
200g reduced-fat feta cheese
½ bunch of mint leaves, roughly chopped
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Tip

If you wanted to transform this into more of a substantial salad, mix in 200g cooked Puy lentils as they make a delicious addition.

Method

Steam the Bimi® broccoli for a few minutes until it is just tender. Remove and leave to cool.
Lightly toast the pumpkin seeds in a hot frying pan until they start to turn crunchy and golden. Remove from the pan and leave to cool.
Place the watermelon and cucumber in a bowl or on a large serving plate. Cut the Bimi® broccoli into bite-size pieces and add to the bowl. Crumble over the feta cheese and sprinkle over the toasted pumpkin seeds and chopped mint.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and olive oil. Season with pepper. Pour over the salad and serve.
