Whole Wheat Salad with Corn and Peanuts

This is a totally unique salad that will sweep you off your feet! Whole wheat has a very interesting mouth-feel, quite like cooked barley.



This combines beautifully with sweet corn and peanuts, to give you a multi-textured salad with a bit of crunch and a bit of chewiness.

A dash of lemony dressing boosts the flavour of the Whole Wheat Salad with Corn and Peanuts, while a garnish of fresh grated coconut gives it a fabulous facelift. In fact, you will find that the salad just doesn’t taste so good without the garnish of coconut, which is therefore a must-do.

Enjoy the salad as it is or just wrap it up in Whole Wheat Mexican Tortillas or stuff it in a Pita Bread for a satiating meal.
