Chorizo Salad

"A salad that can be a main meal as easily as a side dish. If you have potatoes leftover, it's very quick to make. You can also speed things up by purchasing jars of roasted peppers, rather than roasting them yourself."

  1. I'm a new convert to chorizo, and always looking for ways to use it-this was a good one, simple and delicious. We used the jarred peppers which I love, and lightly blanched, julienned snow peas instead of beans (which I loathe). The snow peas were good, and added nice colour and texture. Note in step 1, the chorizo should be removed from the pan-something we didn't do, so we couldn't really brown the potatoes or the chorizo would burn. That didn't affect the wonderful flavour a bit though.

This is a picture of me and my husband in Portugal, climbing up above the clouds with our bikes. Right now we are travelling around the world on our bicycles, so I only pop onto Zaar occasionally, when internet connections and time allow me to. If I don't reply to a message about one of my recipes, now you know why! Our trip may take several years so if it's urgent, it's probably better for you to post in the forums ;) Good food is really important to me -- I am happy to pay extra for food that I feel is produced in a sustainable and ethical way and always try to eat using seasonal produce. When we were in the UK we rarely shopped at supermarkets, trying instead to favour small producers, although we were very lucky in that we lived in London and there was lots of choice. We also were fortunate enough to have a weekly organic veg box delivered to our door, filled with so many lovely vegetables for very little money. It really opened my horizons in terms of the variety of vegetables I eat. If you're in the UK, check out Riverford for a box supplier as they're amazing! When I'm not eating I love to take pictures and travel with my husband. <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/World%20Tour/ZWT2.gif">
