    Tasty, quick, easy and very healthy. I use a wider variety of salad leaves and prefer the smoked mackeral variation to the ham making this lovely salad even more healthy. I always feel full up when I have eaten it too! Great recipe!

    Used rocket instead of iceburg, soya beans instead of peas. I don't like horseradish so I mixed in to the yogurt some grain mustard and a dash of tobasco for the spiceness. Filled me more than I thought it would.

    Really easy to do and have tried with a variety of salad leaves instead of iceburg. Delicious in a lunch box too.
