1/4 iceberg or other lettuce, shredded

Slice the halloumi and grill until browned on both sides.  Gently warm the wraps under the grill on in a microwave.

Heard some very inspiring and entertaining  speakers this week. Mary Clear of www.incredible-edible-todmorden.co.uk (does what it says on the tin) and Tim Lang Prof. at City University – all round food expert and campaigner –  coiner of the term ‘food miles’. The art of public speaking is not dead (and the art of public growing and cooking is swelling like a prize marrow).
