You folks know that every now and then despite the time of year maybe not being appropriate I'll drop in a salad recipe just to add a bit of variety.

And it's been a while since the last king prawn and rocket salad hasn't it?

So, today its the turn of this tasty avocado prawn and coconut salad!

It was my other half that gave me the idea for this avocado prawn and coconut salad.

You see, she frequently travels with her job, staying over in hotels all around the U.K.

I recall her mentioning she'd enjoyed having it somewhere. I duly noted it down in my "menu ideas" OneNote and thought about how I could make it more interesting and healthy.

And not just taste like any old ordinary salad.

That's where I thought I would use a honey dressing which would enhance the flavour and make it more exciting to eat.

Also honey used as a salad dressing helps to break down salad greens and improves digestibility too. Now there's a fact for you!

And talking about facts and health benefits.....
