Too cold for salad? Never! Here is a lovely warm salad to have on cold winter days.
This salad has lots of warm and welcoming mediterranean ingredients to help your forget the frost outside. Peppers, or capsicum where I am from, are a rich source of vitamins A and C. Feta cheese is a good source of Protein, Riboflavin, Vitamin B12, Calcium and Phosphorus. It can be a little high in sodium so if you are watching your salt, you could substitute chickpeas

This salad is my pick of the bunch for a healthy lunch that will sustain you throughout your afternoon. New potatoes have a low GI (and even more so when left to cool) and beetroot is not only high in high in antioxidants but also contains potassium, magnesium, iron, vitamins A, B6 and C, and folic acid. Walnuts are also jam packed with antioxidants and are a rich source of fibre, B vitamins, magnesium and omega 3 fatty acids.
All in all its a pretty powerful package and tastes great too!
