Need a ‘festive’ salad for Christmas Day lunch? This salad fits the bill perfectly, in fact it’s a great one for any BBQ or occasion, and as a bonus, left overs work extremely well for lunch – just add cooked chicken.

 Bre’s absolutely delicious lunch she brought to work one day was the inspiration for this salad – cauliflower adds such a delicious crunch to any salad, and a few craisins add some interest and a sweet touch – and really do turn it into the ideal salad for all your festive occasions. It works well served on a large round platter. Hope it gives you some inspo!
