with Flaked Almonds & Mint Yoghurt Dressing
Tonight’s salad is hearty and flavourful, with fluffy couscous, roasted eggplant and fresh veggies all tossed together. We’ll mix up a mint yoghurt dressing as well for extra pizzazz - drizzle it all over for an extra touch of creamy tartness and sprinkle over some almonds for that much-needed crunch! *This recipe is under 650kcal per serving.*
