Puka Plantain Recipes

Fresh Goat Cheese, Fruit and Nut Salad

We all love salads, so we would like to show you how versatile and filling a salad can be. Once you have a bed of fresh dressed greens, your options are endless.

We prefer a mixture of textures with a little creaminess and plenty of crunch from Puka plantain strips. This salad checks all the boxes.

This is a hearty and filling salad that can either be served on the side of a healthy dinner, or as a light lunch.
