1 small little gem lettuce, leaves torn
1 head of chicory (endive), leaves removed and torn
1 large handful of mixed herb salad (mine had rocket and coriander and lollo rosso)
1 tomato, chopped
2 spring onions (scallions), chopped
1 tsp wholegrain french mustard
splash of balsamic vinegar
generous sprinkling of dried thyme
freshly ground pepper
cannellini beans
1 tsp hemp seeds (or pumpkin, or sunflower, or whatever) - optional
Excuse lack of measurements (however, using about 100-150g beans (without hemp seeds) the calorie count is going to be between 150-200 cals the lot, max, I think). Put everything into a large tupperware and shake it up, a lot. Leave for 30 mins or so to marinate. Eat. Yum. It's good without the beans too. It's the chicory that makes it.
Follow with two cups of strong coffee and then wonder why you are no longer able to sleep at night. *sigh*

I don't have to wonder why *I* can't sleep at night. My toddler screaming "Mommy!" until I stumble out of bed and go see what the hell she wants at 3 a.m. pretty much explains it.
Sigh.
Your salad sounds fantastic.

Ah babies. :-) Put like that, my insomnia seems like a luxury. I hope she goes back to sleep soon!
