Ingredients

• 150 g oak leaf lettuce (1 oak leaf lettuce)
• 30 g rye whole grain bread (1 slice)
• 80 g cream cheese (13 % fat)
• colorful peppercorns
• coarse salt
• 3 tbsp classic vegetable broth
• pepper
• 2 tsp mild white wine vinegar

Instructions

1. 1. Thoroughly wash the oakleaf lettuce, spin it dry, and cut it into small, bite-sized pieces.
2. 2. Break the whole grain bread into large chunks and crush them into fine crumbs using a stand mixer or food processor.
3. 3. Mix half of the breadcrumbs with the cream cheese in a small bowl and let the mixture rest for five minutes.
4. 4. Coarsely crush the peppercorns in a mortar. Mix them with the remaining breadcrumbs and a pinch of salt, then spread the mixture onto a small plate.

7. 7. Divide the salad onto two plates. Arrange the cream cheese balls on top and serve the dish.
