Chili Crisp Rainbow Carrot Salad

I was not fully convinced about chili crisp and was very late to jump onto the bandwagon, but now I fully get it and can’t stop putting it on everything.

Tomato, Cucumber, & Basil Salad

Using colourful baby tomatoes gives a beautiful pop of colour. It makes for a perfect side salad for a lovely summer lunch.
