No Thermomix necessary for this one! Even though it is used to make the dressing, those without can make it by simply crushing the garlic and shaking all ingredients vigorously in a jar.

I often make a salad similar to this but the sesame seeds and dressing really took it to the next level. Delicious!
Yum, yum, yum. The sesame seeds are a great addition. Thus will be a regular dish in my house I think 🙂
was yummy, thumbs up from husband. Kids wouldn’t eat but salad is not their thing.
This was a delicious salad. I added some crispy bacon to the salad as well. It was a great success
