  •  2 tbs  mustard sauce
  •  1/2 tsp lime juice 
  •  1 cup boiled potatoes cubed    
  •  1 cup boiled pasta
  • Steamed carrots
  • Steamed peas
  • Steamed broccoli 
  • Sweet corn (optional)
Boil boneless chicken pieces with salt and pepper, cool and shred for the recipe.

How to put it together :

For the dressing:
  • In a mixing bowl add Mayonnaise
  • To this add mustard sauce
  • Season with salt and pepper
  • And mixed herbs
  • Some lemon juice and whisk
(Taste.....if you like it then we walk through the next step.
Adjust the dressing to your taste, that's where all the flavour lies.)

Now to the dressing add chicken, potatoes, pasta, carrots, whatever you want to add. Toss and add herbs. Garnish with finely chopped parsley.
