Halloumi & quinoa fattoush
Serves 4
Ingredients
- 2 brown pittas (torn into pieces)
- 2 lemons (juiced)
- 5 tbsp olive oil
- 1 garlic clove (crushed)
- 250g block halloumi (sliced)
- 350g medium tomatoes (quartered)
- 250g microwaveable pouch quinoa

Method
- Heat the grill to high. Toss the pitta pieces with 1 tbsp oil and spread out onto a baking sheet. Grill for 3-4 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and crisp then set aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the remaining oil with the lemon juice and garlic, then season. Heat a large griddle pan or non-stick frying pan over a high heat and cook the halloumi for 1-2 minutes on each side.
