(low iodine) Serves 4
This salad is as delicious as it is colourful. Once the rice and sweet potato is cooked, it’s as simple as chucking everything together and serving. This salad has enough going on to be a meal in it’s own right, but would also make a simple but super tasty side to any main meal. This salad doesn’t just look good, it tastes good too and what’s more, it’s full of stuff that’s good for you! Even if you’re on a low iodine diet!
