Lamb's Lettuce & Pasta Salad

Hello everyone! Today we are going to cook something simple, delicious and fast . This colourful pasta salad is perfect for lunch or dinner. This dish contains all the nutrients for a complete meal, although it is also a great side dish. Lamb's lettuce is the base for this salad, however any type of lettuce perfectly combines with the rest of the ingredients. Cheese provides flavour and colour, and it is also a great source of calcium. I used five counties cheese for this salad, which includes Cheddar, Red Leicester, Cheshire, Double Gloucester and Derby and the result has been amazing.
