Nutritional values

This savoury salad composition, which does not contain any onions at all, is also suitable for sensitive stomachs. The dietary fibres from lettuce leaves, celery and pear, together with the protein from the cheese dressing, keep you full for a long time.

You can add even more fibre by sprinkling a tablespoonful of chopped walnut kernels and finely chopped dates over the salad.
