Tip

Making ahead
No one likes a soggy salad, so keep undressed salad and dressing separate in the fridge, then toss together just before eating. Croutons keep their crunch best covered and at room temperature.

Method

  1. Boil eggs for 8 mins, then cool, peel and cut into wedges. Mix ham with salad, cherry tomatoes and mushrooms. Toast ciabatta. When cool, rub with the cut side of garlic, then cut into large croutons. Mix sun-dried tomatoes with dressing. Toss everything together and top with the eggs and seasoning.
