Pan-Fried Halloumi
with Steamed Brown Rice & Quinoa
Our 15-minute Halloumi Superbowl is the perfect vegetarian recipe for busy evenings. Light and packed with fresh flavours, we’ve combined nourishing brown rice and quinoa with peppery rocket and juicy cherry tomatoes before tossing everything together with a delicious honey and red wine vinegar dressing. Serve in deep bowls and top with crunchy chopped walnuts, fresh mint and warm slices of pan-fried golden halloumi.
Boxes and ingredients are packed in facilities that handles Peanut, Nuts, Sesame, Fish, Crustaceans, Milk, Egg, Mustard, Celery, Soya, Gluten and Sulphites. Due to the conflict in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.
