Ham, Mushroom & Feta Salad (no dressing required!)

I’ve been in the mood for lighter dinner meals lately, and came up with this tonight. :-) And it’s easy as! Doesn’t need dressing either; there’s enough flavour in there as is.

Ham & mushroom salad

Ingredients (Serves 2)

  • 1 Desiree potato, washed & unpeeled
  • 100g fetta, diced (get the ‘real’ stuff; e.g., no cows milk! Sheep and goat milk only.)
  • 100g shaved deli ham, diced
  • 1 handful cos lettuce, chopped coarsely
  • 12 button mushrooms, diced
  • 1 tsp of dill, finely chopped
  • 1 small firm avocado, diced
  • 1 tsp season-all (I used Masterfoods brand)
  • 2 tbsp butter

Directions

  1. Place the potato in a swallow bowl with a little water. Pierce in two places with a fork. Cook in microwave on high for 5 minutes.
  2. In the meantime, heat the butter in a pan over medium-low heat.
  3. Cook the mushrooms in the pan over high heat, seasoning with dill and season-all. Stir frequently until they are cooked golden brown.
  4. Remove mushrooms from heat and place on a plate lined with paper towel to drain off excess oil.
  5. Turn over the potato over and add a little more water to the bowl. Pierce again in two different places with a fork.
  6. Heat the potato in the microwave again, on high, for 5 minutes.
  7. Cut the cooked potato into cubes.
  8. Toss the potato, mushrooms, fetta, ham, lettuce and avocado together in a salad bowl. Enjoy!
