A photogenic Smoked Chicken and Radish salad

How's this for a healthy salad?  The late burst of warm weather here has played havoc with mealtimes: who wants a heavy meal of roast meat and vegetables when the temperature can't make up its mind and decides to give us a few more days of heatwave?

This salad is a compromise between the fantasy of roast chicken and duck fat potatoes I had planned, and the reality of being too darned boiling hot to be bothered.  Throw in the surprise find of a neatly trimmed bunch of radishes from the supermarket, and dinner's on the table.

Smoked Chicken and Radish Salad

Ingredients

3 smoked chicken drumsticks (or 1 smoked chicken breast), meat shredded

50g rocket or baby spinach leaves

6 radishes, sliced

1 small avocado, sliced

1 small handful of roasted almonds

Salad dressing, eg. 3 parts olive oil to 1 part red wine vinegar, whisked

1.  Arrange all ingredients in an attractive manner of a plate.

2.  Sprinkle on the dressing and toss lightly

3.  Photograph the dish to within an inch of its life.  Serve.

My local supermarket is sometimes (pleasantly) unpredictable - here are some radishes I unearthed in the 'Fresh Food' section.
Mostly, though, the supermarket is just annoying.

  

Lots of healthy vegetables, nuts and chicken protein

motto: a colourful salad is a good salad!
