Snack Time

  When I'm hungry, but not hungry enough for a huge meal, I like to make small salads. I love salads. I couldn't think of something better than a bowl full of delicious juicy raw vegetables. I wish it was appropriate to just order that when I'm dining out..

  Something else I absolutely adore is seafood. Although I don't like every single thing that you can eat from the sea, what I do like I can't get enough of. So why not combine both?!

  For my snack today I had a prawn salad! To go along with it I had ginger tea.

  While I let my tea infuse (for 5 minutes at least) I got cracking on making my salad. 

  Half an hour before I even started making my tea, I defrosted a handful of large prawns in a bowl of cold water. 

  I chopped a selection of my favourite vegetables; lettuce, celery, mangetout, cucumber and red pepper up into small peices. I think chopping the veg is my favourite part of making a salad, after the presentation, that is.

  Finally, after I'd prepared the salad in a bowl I sprinkled the defrosted prawns on top, ready to eat. I nearly couldn't take photos of my finished food, I could hardly keep myself from digging in straight away!!

Yum!! (I didn't realise how big this salad was going to turn out, might be too full to eat dinner now!!)
