4 tbsp olive oil
1 small ciabatta , torn into small bite-pieces
2 x 80g packs sliced chorizo
250g pack baby plum or cherry tomatoes , halved
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
pinch sugar
1 large, ripe avocado , halved, stoned and sliced
150g bag baby leaf and herb salad

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Fry the ciabatta for 8-10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until starting to crisp and brown, then tip into a large salad bowl.
