Summer green salad with egg and goats' cheese

Background

This quick & easy summer green salad is full of nutrition - it has asparagus, rocket, avocado, egg and goat's cheese, making it super healthy yet filling. Serve it with wholesome rolls, quinoa or buckwheat blini.

Ingredients

250g green asparagus
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 eggs
50g rocket
1 avocado
100g radishes
1 Tbsp pine nuts
50g goat cheese (soft)
1 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice

Instructions

Wash the radishes, cut off the ends, then slice them into thin rings. Toss with the rocket in a serving dish.
Place the eggs in a pan and add enough water to cover them completely. Bring to the boil - then turn off the heat, cover the pan and let it rest for 6 minutes. Rinse the eggs in cold water.
Meanwhile, dry fry the pine nuts and sprinkle over the salad.
Cut the woody ends of the asparagus, rub with 1 tablespoon oil, then griddle or barbecue them until lightly charred. Add to the salad.
When the eggs are cooled, remove their shells, cut into wedges and add to the salad.
Cut the avocados in half, take out the stone with a spoon, then peel & slice the flesh. Add to the salad.
Finally, crumble over the cheese, season with salt & pepper, and drizzle with the remaning oil & the lemon juice.
