Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 8.8 oz (250g) Halloumi Cheese
  • 4 cups Baby Arugula or Mixed Greens
  • 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes (halved)
  • 1 large English Cucumber (sliced)
  • 1/4 small Red Onion (thinly sliced)
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Mint Leaves
  • 3 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Honey or Maple Syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dried Oregano
  • Black Pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, honey, and dried oregano in a small bowl to make the dressing.
  2. Prepare the vegetables: slice cucumbers, halve cherry tomatoes, and thinly shave red onion. Combine in a large bowl with arugula and mint.
  3. Pat the halloumi dry and slice into half-inch thick pieces.
  4. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat and grill the halloumi for about 2 minutes on each side until golden.
  5. Toss the greens and vegetables with the dressing, then top with warm halloumi and serve immediately.

Notes

For best results, grill halloumi just before serving to maintain its warm texture. Store leftovers separately to preserve freshness.
