Salmon, Lentil & Halloumi Salad – Quick Slimming World Meal Idea

This only takes minutes to put together and the combination of Salmon and Halloumi in a warm salad works really well. The combination of both Christmas and lockdown means we’ve eaten a lot of heavy rick meals recently, so I have been trying out some lighter options. When I’ve overindulged (and my dresses are feeling tight!) I tend to go back to Slimming World Principles to get myself back on track. This is a great easy slimming world meal as the only thing in the whole meal you need to syn is the lentil pouch and halloumi

This serves two, but is also nice as a meal for one with the remaining portion eaten cold for lunch the next day. its also really simple and quick to make

Easy Low Syn Salmon and Lentil Slimming World Meal

Ingredients

• 2 salmon fillets
• 1 courgette
• 2 handfuls of green beans
• A pouch of cooked lentils (I like the Merchant tomatoey French puy and green lentils one)
• Half a bag of salad leaves
• Fry lite
• Balsamic vinegar to dress
• A pack of hallumi

How to make Salmon, Lentil & Halloumi Salad

• Preheat the oven to 180C Fan.
• Place each salmon fillet on a square of foil, season with salt and pepper and a spray of fry lite.
• Bring the sides together and scrunch into loose pockets.
• Once the oven is hot bake the foil pockets on a baking tray for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile cut the courgette into batons and fry in fry lite over a medium heat in a large frying pan.
• Top and tail the green beans and blanch in boiling water for two minutes. (Keep the water)
• Once the courgettes are nicely browned on each side, turn down the heat to low and add the lentil pouch with half a cup of water from the blanched beans and stir until its all heated through.
• Pop the grill on and while its heating slice the halloumi into think slices and then grill till they are browned.
• Once the salmon is cooked flake into bite size chunks (or if preferred keep as a fillet to place on top)
• Split the salad leaves between two large bowls and add the lentils, salmon pieces and finally the Hallumi slices.
• Season with salt and pepper and finish with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.
