Messy Salad Recipe

A messy salad is where you use whatever vegetables you have left to make a salad. 

It doesn't matter too much what you have but more how you use it. 

You need to start with a base, this will make up the large part of your dish. The base can be anything from lettuce to salad leaves. If you don't have anything like this, grate some veg of a similar size to carrots and cucumber lengthways. Place the base in a bowl.

Next, use vegetables like mushrooms, tomatoes or peppers anything you can cut up into small pieces(without having an overpowering flavour) and sprinkle generously over the salad.

If you want to add any cheese, make sure to cut it up into small chunks and scatter over the salad.

Finish with delicately pouring a small amount of olive oil over the vegetables followed by a pinch of salt, pepper and some chilli flakes. If you have a lemon squeeze a small amount over the salad and finito.
