Folic acid is a B vitamin that is often neglected in the diet - but by no means in this poultry salad, which is refined with lots of fruit and vegetables. One portion already provides 40 percent of the daily allowance; especially women who want to have children or are in early pregnancy benefit from it.

A high-fibre wholemeal baguette as a side dish goes well with it. If you like, you can also sprinkle the salad with 1 tbsp. pumpkin seeds, which have been briefly roasted in a pan without fat.
