Summer is more than a season; it's a feeling. It's the warmth of the sun, longer days, and the craving for food that is as vibrant and refreshing as the season itself. At Soul Origin, we're capturing the essence of summer in a bowl with a brand-new lineup of salads designed to make your lunch break the highlight of your day. Get ready to explore bold new flavours and welcome back some beloved classics.
This season, we are thrilled to introduce two incredible new creations: the zesty Chorizo & Corn Salad and the delightful Bocconcini & Sundried Tomato Pasta Salad. Each one is crafted with the freshest ingredients to deliver a satisfying and delicious meal. Let’s dive into what makes these new additions so special.
A Fiesta in Every Bite: The Chorizo & Corn Salad
Are you looking for a summer salad with a serious kick? The Chorizo & Corn Salad is your answer. This isn't just a salad; it's a celebration of textures and tastes that come together in perfect harmony. We built this recipe to be both hearty and refreshing, ensuring you get a substantial meal that won't weigh you down.
The star of the show is the charred chorizo, which brings a smoky and spicy depth that instantly awakens your taste buds. We balance this savoury element with the natural sweetness of corn kernels and the creamy coolness of avocado cubes. To add a satisfying crunch, we toss it all with a mix of brown rice, kale, carrot, and cabbage. This combination creates a fantastic base that is both nutritious and full of texture.
But the flavour journey doesn't stop there. A salad is only as good as its dressing, and this one is layered with goodness. A creamy French dressing and our signature Green Goddess dressing provide a smooth foundation, while a touch of chilli mayo adds an extra layer of heat. Finished with a sprinkle of parmesan and fresh coriander, every single bite brings a festival of flavour to your lunchtime.
Mediterranean Sunshine: The Bocconcini & Sundried Tomato Pasta Salad
Escape to the sunny shores of the Mediterranean with our new Bocconcini & Sundried Tomato Pasta Salad. This salad captures the simple yet profound flavours of Italian cuisine in one beautiful bowl. It’s light, satisfying, and perfect for a warm afternoon.
At its heart are creamy pearls of bocconcini cheese, offering a milky, delicate flavour that pairs wonderfully with the other ingredients. We add tangy sundried tomatoes that provide a concentrated burst of sweet and savoury notes, reminiscent of long summer days. Fresh baby spinach adds a touch of colour and a dose of nutrients, while a hint of oregano infuses the salad with its classic aromatic warmth.
All of these ingredients are gently tossed with Casarecce pasta, a short, twisted pasta shape that is perfect for catching every bit of the dressing. To bring it all together, we finish it with our famous Green Goddess dressing, which adds a creamy, herby finish. It’s a simple, elegant salad that proves fresh ingredients are all you need for a truly memorable meal.
