Halloumi, Figs and Walnut Salad

“H” for HEATWAVE

“H” for HEALTHY MEAL IDEAS

“H” for HALLOUMI,  Do you enjoy Halloumi cheese?

So I have a fig tree, or 2 around the garden, but have never been able to harvest any for ourselves, as the birds get to them quicker than I can.  Do you have any tips that can help me harvest some of the figs  this year?

I enjoy adding fresh figs to my salad and here is a Halloumi, Fig and Walnut Salad that is perfect for this unrelenting heatwave we are having in Johannesburg and across many other provinces in the country.

Here is how I made this delicious Halloumi salad, do give this a try and I look forward to seeing your feedback.

Happy Salad Making. 

Love Marriam 💕
