Here’s another salad idea from Weight Watchers. It’s really substantial, you don’t feel like you are going to be starving ten minutes later. I was actually starving making it so I didn’t get a chance to take any photos. Trust me it’s really good. I was a bit hesitant about the dressing but it tasted lovely, would consider using that for other salads. I ended up using Thai Style Turkey Sausages from Aldi for the recipe. They are great, even the in-house taste tester was impressed.
Serves 4
Ingredients
12 baby chat potatoes, quartered
2 tsp vegetable oil
6 lean sausages
1/2 bunch rocket, chopped
1/2 cup (140g) no-fat Greek-style yoghurt
2 tsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 tsp lemon juice
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 bunch watercress, sprigs picked
1 Lebanese cucumber, halved lengthways, sliced
250g cherry tomatoes, halved
Method
1. Place the potato in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil over high heat. Cook for 10 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside to cool.
2. Meanwhile, heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook the sausages, turning, for 6-8 minutes or until browned and cooked. Slice diagonally.
3. Using a food processor, process the rocket, yoghurt, olive oil, lemon juice and garlic until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Combine the potato, sausage, watercress, cucumber and tomato in a serving bowl. Drizzle with the rocket and yoghurt dressing and toss to coat.
