Courgette, Pea, Chilli & Mint Salad


Some people just hear the word salad and their brain immediately sends out the message, 'Light meal, not enough, need carbs.' If you're one of those people think of this as Courgette spaghetti instead. It's a light meal but substantial enough for the evening on Fitbitch principles

Ingredients
ONe courgette, sliced into ribbons using cheese cutter
Cup of garden peas
quarter of avocado, diced
two tomatoes, chopped
Fresh mint finely chopped
Half a blood red orange
1 tsp of sunflower seeds

For the dressing
1/2 birds eye chilli
Rice wine vinegar
Orange juice
Fish sauce

Combine all the vegetable ingrdients and mix the dressing according to taste. Pour on and serve.
If you want to make this more substantial, add chicken breast or tuna.
