Pimp Your Salad  – From bland to exceptional in 2.8 seconds

With a mission to ‘make healthy eating effortless and exciting’, Pimp My Salad offer an exciting new range of vegan and gluten-free meal toppers.

Coconut Bacon, Cashew Parmesan and Activated Super Seeds will be readily available on UK shop shelves this summer. Having been carefully created, by brand founders Olga and Alex, the toppers use only the best ingredients, sourced from ethical suppliers, and are vegan, gluten-free and keto/paleo-friendly. Each is made using slowly dried cooking techniques, to ensure the nutrients in their ingredients stay intact, and each sprinkle of topper adds extra goodness to breakfast, lunch and dinner.

It’s not all about nutrition however and ‘pimping your salad’ means you’ll have more fun in the kitchen, extra zing will be added to mealtimes and work lunches will become less boring.

Perhaps most importantly, the toppers’ unique flavours are exceptional and stand out in a bland and boring crowd with their boldness and substance:

Pimp Your Salad
Coconut Bacon

Coconut Bacon combines coconut flakes with herbs, spices and natural wood smoke to create a scrumptious crunchy bacon alternative that will satisfy any craving.

Pimp Your Salad
Cashew Parmesan Cheez

Cashew Parmesan Cheez uses raw cashews, sunflower seeds, nutritional yeast, organic kale and lemon peel to produce a vibrant and punchy topping.

Pimp Your Salad
Activated Super Seeds

Activated Super Seeds mixes six seeds, including chia and poppy, with lively spices and tamari to ensure your taste buds won’t be disappointed.

The products in this exciting range are far more than ‘salad’ toppers. Whilst they bring a pop of crunch and bold flavours to salads, they also add an extra dimension to pizzas and pasta and a tasty burst of excitement to bowls of grains, veggies and soups…or they can be eaten straight from the jar as nutritious plant-based snacks.

Available in Ocado from July 1st. You can also find Pimp My Salad toppers in Planet Organic, Holland & Barrett, Selfridges and your local health store.

When you’re ready to serve, divide cooked quinoa, sweet potatoes, mushrooms and veggie mixtures into 2 bowls. Slice the avocado and add into the bowls. 

Lightly drizzle remaining oil over the bowls, generously sprinkle Super Seeds and serve. Enjoy!
