Baby Artichoke Blue Cheese Cannelinni Bean & Lemon Salad
I do like easy cooking, this recipe doesn't get any simpler, and it looks very impressive. The blue cheese can be omitted if you want or changed for a different cheese altogether, such as Cheddar, Lancashire or even Caerphilly. I use Cropwell Bishop as it has a very creamy flavour and waxy texture.
