Sensible Summer Salad

A light lunch to serve 4 or 5 hens

A base of shredded green things, eg, carrot tops, greens (raw or steamed), chopped fresh spinach leaves, diced cucumber. Add to this a small handful of cheese (not salty cheese), and a larger handful of dried mealworms.

Toss, and serve. No dressing is needed as this is a light lunch for figure-conscious hens who may be wondering whether last year’s bikini will still fit. This salad will help to avoid the shock of  any unwelcome bulges or spreading bottoms.

(nb: Health and safety alert- please do not feed hens broad beans or raw potato. They may fall off the perch prematurely and permanently if you do.)
