Marks & Sparks must be the prepared salad kings of the British high street/supermarkets. Such a range of foods they have on offer for lunchtime and very tempting meal deals. Their prepared salads are always so fresh and full of flavour. They sell boxed tubs of salads, many of which are on a 2 for £3 mix and match deal. These come ready dressed or with an accompanying pot of dressing. In this post I will share some of my favourites in their range. They add new ones all the time too, so am always on the look out for them! They had a nice one called a shaker salad but haven't seen it for a while.
A light salad, especially considering it is a pasta one. Orzo is more like a grain than pasta and is very nice. The salad itself contains juicy sundried tomatoes and a basil dressing. It is a bright and colourful salad, the yellow Orzo stained with turmeric has a lovely contrast with the bright red tomatoes. It was a little oily for me but still very enjoyable and packed full of flavour. Really must look out for Orzo would be great to have for a change and like the idea of it in a herby minestrone soup.
