Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

We enjoyed this fresh, healthy salad. Thanks for the recipe.
Delicious.
Beautiful salad. I added walnuts, chick peas and cranberries. The salad dressing I used was 3 tbs red wine vinegar, 2 tbs honey, 1 tbs olive oil. Shake and pour. Yum!
Made this salad twice now and love it. I have decided to leave out the zucchini as I feel it goes too soggy the next day.
So glad you enjoyed it!! A dressing sounds great! I had just been using some lemon juice and the leftover olive oil from the roast veg. Another reviewer has used Balsamic. Will keep it in mind and see what i can come up with. (:
We LOVED this delicious meal last week, and my family has requested it again this week! We added a balsamic dressing and ate it as a main meal.

Yum! So delicious and super healthy. A huge salad - a meal in itself. Thanks for sharing.

Really tasty, but maybe there should be a simple salad dressing to go with it?
