    1/4 cabbage thinley shredded (I use green and red cabbage together)
    1 cup diced red capsicum (Can use green as well)
    1 small onion finely diced
    1 cup grated carrot
    1 cup cliced clery
    1 cup sliced mushroom (I don't use this as DP hates mushrooms)
    1/4 cup of pine nuts
    1 apple diced (skin on)
    1/3 cup sultantas
    1/2 cup 97% fat free mayo
    1 level tespoon curry powder (or to taste)
    salt & pepper to taste

    Spread pine nut s on a baking tray, place under grill until browned on both sides (careful they burn quickly). Leave to cool. Stir curry powder into mayo. In a large mixing bowl place all ingredients and mix well together. Refridgerate until required.

    Have you tried a rice salad.
    Its cold rice to which you add:
    drained pineapple
    spring onion or similar
    cabana
    capsicum - either fresh or small tin
    can peas/corn
    cheese cut into small cubes - I don't always put in
    Then add a Kraft dressing - just found out this is fine for people who have coeliacs
    A DD prefers homemade dressing

    My family love Avocado & Corn salad.
    Basically we get a can of corn kernals (or 2) and add equal amounts of diced avocado. Then we chop up some coriander and dress it with a squeeze of lemon.. yummo
