Fresh Gourmet Salad Challenge
20:25
Fresh Gourmet is the worlds number one selling brand for salad toppings. The number one brand in USA has now launched in the U.K. Selling there lovely Fresh Gourmet Croutons in Tesco stores. Fresh Gourmet offers a very wide range of salad toppings. Fresh Gourmet toppings really do bring a different flavour to meals.
Fresh Gourmet Croutons can be used for salads, soups and more! They are baked not fried!
Croutons are made from breads and have an amazing flavour and crunch. "Add a burst of flavour to any meal" is what it says on the packet. And it truly steps up to what it says on the packet. I really love these, they truly do finish any salad off!
Fresh Gourmet set us challenge, which is encourages bloggers to get creative with the Fresh Gourmet salad toppings, here are some of my ideas so far....
Leafy spring salad
Ingredients
1 sliced tomato
Lambs lettuce
Baby leaf red lettuce or red cabbage
Spinach
1/4 cucumber
Small spring onions

Method:
Chop the cucumber into chunks and slice the tomato into quarters
Add a few leafs of lambs lettuce, baby leaf red lettuce (or red cabbage) and spinach into a bowl.
Chop and dice the spring onions and add to the bowl.
Give it a good stir/toss.
Add the tomato and cucumber.
Garnish with 'Fresh Gourmet Sea Salt & Cracked Black Pepper Croutons' I added a good handful to my salad and added a little big of Heinz light salad cream.
Perfect for a light lunch :)
