Butternut squash, chickpea and Asparagus sweet chilli salad

When I feel like something filling, and tasty for lunch, but don’t want a heavy meal, I love to have a salad, but i really like salads that have a cooked element to them, rather than just raw.

This dish can be eaten as a side, appetizer or a main meal, and it meets all the needs to keep a tummy happy…colourful, different textures and tastes from sweet to savoury.

Whatsmore, it’s packed full of goodness,is gluten free and has no added fat!!!
