  I feel that it would be very helpful if each recipe was starred as either suitable or unsuitable for freezing, as in the magazine.

  Absolutely lovely. I think there is too much greek yoghurt so will use less next time, and I might add some crispy bacon as spinach, chicken, avacado and bacon go so well together

  This recipe was quick and delicious! I used rocket instead and added some homemade croutons and chopped chives. I will definately make this again - a lovely, fresh, summery salad!

  Following the great comments I was very disappointed with this recipe. It was OK - I wouldn't make it again.

  I was pleasantly surprised with this recipe. I added a few new potatoes as I thought it needed bulking out a bit but actually it didn't need it as it was really filling. Even my husband who usually turns his nose up at salads really liked this one, I think the sweetness of the apple made it for him. I would make it again.

  Very nice recipe! I'm a real carnivore usually, but I really enjoyed this salad. The avocado were like little pieces of heaven. I think I will also try adding some crispy bacon next time for extra crunch and flavour.

  I used a grapefruit instead of apples and mustar-cream dressing instead of yoghurt - the outcome was delicious!
