Large Salad Pack

Our unique mixed salad is one of our most popular items. It changes through the seasons but always include a balance of spicy, peppery, bitter and mild leaves as well as exciting textures, thanks to mustard frills, brassicas (like watercress and rocket) and a range of red and green lettuces, plus more unusual things like chicory, claytonia/winter purslane, pea shoots, bean tops, buckshorn plantain and agretti. 

Each pack will be a crisp palate-cleanser as it is, or provide a strong starting point for any hearty salad meal. As a rough guideline for any time of the year; add some bulk with quinoa and roasted chunks of seasonal veg, then boost your protein content with tinned legumes. Next enliven things with diced dried fruit, finely chopped herbs, toasted nuts and seeds or crunchy croutons, and garnish with anything you might have marinating in the fridge; olives, artichoke hearts, capers or semi-dried tomatoes. Finally bring it all together with a good oil, vinegar and mustard dressing (try experimenting with different types of all three of these) or drizzle with a runny nut butter (easily whizzed up at home from roasted nuts, if you have a food processor).
