Jennifer Aniston Salad V2

OMG, I can’t get enough of the original version I did of this salad, so I’ve decided to create a slightly different one (just so I don't get sick of the first one). This version is just as good, the flavours and textures are incredible. Do yourself a favour and give it a go!
You can make it at the start of the week and it will last about 3–4 days. Just hold off on dressing it and adding the nuts until you’re ready to eat.
