Roasted Capsicum, Goat Cheese and Walnut Salad

"A light and full bodied salad. I acquired this recipe from the local pub. Note: Fetta or any soft, crumbly cheese can be used instead of the goat cheese, and toasted pecan halves make a nice change from walnuts."

  1. Delicious! A nice twist with the grainy mustard and the peppers.
     
  2. Chrissy this is really tasty!! For some reason I had quite a few capsicum in the fridge and they needed using up. This was perfect! Dave took one look at it and said "this isn't going to fill me up?!?!" He was wrong - it did, and he really enjoyed it. What a lovely fresh, healthy dinner, perfect for a warm summer night. Hugs, Jules :)
     
  3. A definite winner for a hot summer evening's dinner. I prepared this just as posted, and will do so again! Thanks for posting.
