This is a salad dish that is very easy to prepare. This can be made days ahead and just reheat anytime.

When I was in Sydney, I had very little time to prepare my own meals. The oven was my best friend, as I usually just toss anything in. I would buy fish fingers and just let them bake in the oven for a couple of minutes. Or if I’m feeling a bit fancy, I would make a salad out of roasted vegetables. What I like about this recipe is that it doesn’t spoil easily. I just portion them in microwaveable take-away boxes and have them for lunch or dinner at school or sometimes even at work.
