Belgian Endive-Sprout Salad
Ingredients
½ small bunch watercress
3 heads Belgian endive

Juice of 1 lime
1 tbsp (15 ml) walnut oil
⅔ cup (150 ml/150 g) fat-free yogurt

Details
Serves: 2
Method
Stir the lime juice and walnut oil into the yogurt. Rinse the watercress and stir into the mixture.
Wash and core the endives. Set aside 6 outside leaves. Finely chop the remaining endive and combine with the cress-yogurt dressing. Add sprouts. Season with salt and pepper and spoon the mixture into the reserved endive leaves.
TIP:- If you don't want to serve the salad in the endive leaves, use 2 heads of endive and the sections of a small grapefruit. For a sweeter salad, use an orange instead of grapefruit.
