    Me and my partner love this salad and have it at least once a week. It's easy, healthy and looks fantastic too! I usually add some tuna flakes, just to bulk it up a bit. A really fresh, adaptable and healthy lunch or dinner.

    Not keen on this - I think it was the dressing so I might make it again without the dressing.

    We really liked this salad and the dressing was just right for us. I didn't have any watercress, but a mix of salad leaves worked really well. The eggs cooked for 7 mins were perfect - you wouldn't have wanted any longer in boiling water!
