Nando's really are too good to us. After introducing the Halloumi Dippers and Veggie Cataplana to the menu last year, the restaurant have just announced a whole bunch of new salads and sides.
Unsurprisingly, they sound completely delicious. If you need a new excuse to put a Nando's date in the diary, this is it.
Please welcome to the stage, a whole host of regular and Fino sides. We're talking rich and tangy Saucy Spinach, Grains n’ Greens; Roasted Sweet Potato & Butternut Squash; and deliciously tender Long Stem Broccoli.
Nando’s is also adding to its Salad options, launching the Watermelon and Feta Salad, a House Salad, and a larger Grains 'n' Greens. They describe the Watermelon and Feta Salad as "a mouth-watering combination of chargrilled slices of watermelon and pickled watermelon chunks served on a bed of baby spinach with black olives, cucumber and a generous sprinkling of feta."
The House Salad features cos lettuce tossed with crunchy cucumber and mixed baby plum tomatoes, topped with olives and mixed chargrilled peppers.
And as for the Grains 'n' Greens? Nando's say it features "a hearty helping of mixed grains, beans and corn, served on a bed of baby spinach and topped with long stem broccoli". All three salads are also available with a helping of PERi-PERi chicken, because why wouldn't you?
The new Salads and Sides are available from 14th May, and our Nando's order is potentially about to change for good.
