This is hands down my favourite salad. The toasted pita chips just make it - yes we are talking bread IN the salad, honestly, I don’t think anything could sound better. There isn’t really much to say about this salad, apart from it goes with everything and that it’s utterly delicious.

The Recipe

Step 1

Preheat oven, fan 150 degrees.

Cut the pita into square small pieces, around 2cm squared. Drizzle in a little olive oil and bake for 10-15 mins until the pitas are fully crispy and just starting to turn golden.

Step 2

Slice the tomatoes into chunks and the cucumber into thin half circles. Thinly slice in the onion into strips.

Mix the dressing together in a small bowl. In a large bowl mix all the ingredients for the salad including the crispy pita chips. Pour in the dressing, season with salt and pepper mix well to evenly coat.
