GOAT'S CHEESE, STRAWBERRY & BASIL SALAD
This sounds an unusual combination, but it works… It is a pretty, fragrant and light salad, which makes the perfect conclusion to a meal on a hot summer’s day, especially if you can’t decide between dessert or cheese! Greek basil has much smaller leaves than regular and just suits the look of the dish, but you can use the latter if easier.
