Nando's confirms it has discontinued side dish that was a ‘great healthy option'
Scroll down to see when it was axed PERI BAD Nando's confirms it has discontinued side dish that was a 'great healthy option' NANDO'S fans have been left gutted after the chicken chain quietly axed a salad dish from the menu. The Leafy Green Salad – a light, fresh option topped with PERi-PERi seeds – has been discontinued, with the chain confirming it was removed back in October. Advertisement 4 The Leafy Green Salad was axed back in October 4 Nando's has now swapped it for a new addition: the Portuguese Tomato Salad Made with mixed salad leaves, a sweet and herby vinegar dressing, Extra Virgin Olive Oil and toasted PERi-PERi seeds, it was a go-to for fans looking for a healthier side to go with their flame-grilled chicken. It was introduced back in Nando's winter menu in November 2023. One customer posted the news on Reddit with the following caption, "It was great to have a healthy option." But Nando's has now swapped it for a new addition: the Portuguese Tomato Salad. Advertisement This vibrant new side is made with a mix of semi-dried, sweet baby and salad tomatoes, cucumber moons, and tangy pink pickled onions – all lightly dressed for a fresh summer feel. The chain said it 'hopes' the Tomato Salad will be a permanent fixture – but didn't confirm if it'll stick around for good. Meanwhile, there's some good news for fans of the cult classic Mediterranean Salad. 4 The cult classic Mediterranean Salad has returned Advertisement 4 For a limited time only the new Caesar Salad is available in Nando's across the UK Nando's revealed it's 'back at every Nando's across the UK and Ireland' – although it warned: 'It's here for a good time, not a long time.' That salad includes a medley of semi-dried and sweet baby tomatoes, olives, feta, cucumber moons and pink pickled onions on a bed of mixed leaves, drizzled with Rozendal vinegar and extra virgin olive oil. Also hitting menus for a limited time is the new Caesar Salad – made with crunchy cos lettuce, creamy Caesar dressing, grated Italian hard cheese and herby toasted croutons. Advertisement Nandos fans say as Aldi stocks a replica range - including their peri-peri fries for just £1.49 A Nando's spokesperson told The Sun said: 'We regularly make updates to our menus and introduce new ingredients and flavours which our fans love. "Leafy Green Salad came off the menu in October, but alternative salad options and sides are available.' OTHER DISCONTINUED ITEMS Fans of McDonald's recently said goodbye to the Minecraft Meal, which fans described as the first McDonald's 'adult Happy Meal' and a McFlurry as part of the change. Whilst, Costa Coffee axed a banana and chocolate muffin in March after it just launched in January. Advertisement Why are products axed or recipes changed? ANALYSIS by chief consumer reporter James Flanders. Food and drinks makers have been known to tweak their recipes or axe items altogether. They often say that this is down to the changing tastes of customers. There are several reasons why this could be done. For example, government regulation, like the "sugar tax," forces firms to change their recipes. Some manufacturers might choose to tweak ingredients to cut costs. They may opt for a cheaper alternative, especially when costs are rising to keep prices stable. For example, Tango Cherry disappeared from shelves in 2018. It has recently returned after six years away but as a sugar-free version. Fanta removed sweetener from its sugar-free alternative earlier this year. Suntory tweaked the flavour of its flagship Lucozade Original and Orange energy drinks. While the amount of sugar in every bottle remains unchanged, the supplier swapped out the sweetener aspartame for sucralose. Sainsbury's recently confirmed it had discontinued its Patisserie Valerie cake slices from branches. Meanwhile, Aldi axed its popular Deli smoke pork sausages across 100 stores leaving shoppers devastated. Lidl dropped beloved fridge essential Dairy Manor lactose-free skimmed milk from shelves recently too. Sainsbury's has also axed popular own-brand Meat Free Steaks to customer frustration. Advertisement Baked goods giant Greggs recently caused a stir after dropping ham salad baguettes from menus, as exclusively revealed by The Sun. The lunch item was axed in favour of other fresh baguettes, despite its popularity among hungry shoppers. One customer posted on X: 'Was so upset to be told that your ham salad baguettes have been discontinued while at your Marlborough store today." 'That's my midweek treat every week and seems to be very popular.' Advertisement A second added: 'I would have loved a ham salad baguette but for some bizarre reason you have stopped doing them! Scandalous!" Meanwhile, Tesco shoppers were left baffled after finding out it had discontinued six-pint bottles of whole milk.

The Halloumi Sticks & Dip with PERi-Honey will cost £4.95. The dip will also be available as an extra for £1.25. Also landing on the menu is a new Summer Grains salad which is a mix of chickpeas, dried apricots, lemon oil and yoghurt dressing. The Summer Grains salad will cost £4.25. It'll also be adding Charred Corn, slathered in a garlicky sauce and finished with PERi-Salt and spring onions, all for £5. And to wash it all down, Nando's is bringing out a new summer drink.

New menu items Here's what's coming to Nando's stores this summer: Halloumi Sticks & Dip with PERi-Honey (serves 2) £4.95 The Big Cheese, £9.25 / £15.50 Charred Corn, £5.00 Summer Grains, £4.25 PERi-Honey, £1.25 Tropical Quencher, £4.25 Nando's is also inviting customers to help decide which limited-edition sauce should return to the menu. Options include former guest flavours such as Smoky Churrasco, Garlic BBQ, and the Fanta collaboration. The winning flavour is expected to return later this summer. Nandos fans say as Aldi stocks a replica range - including their peri-peri fries for just £1.49 This initiative follows the recent recent launch of Extra Saucy Wings, now served with PERi-Flamer—a previously off-menu sauce that had circulated among loyal fans online. PERi-Flamer is now formally available in restaurants and through delivery, marking its first official appearance on the menu. More recently, Aldi recently launched its own Nando's-style dupe range, sparking debate among fans about whether it could match up to the real thing. The new range had a massive variety of menu classics, including a half chicken (£3.99), chicken breast sizzlers (£3.69) or chicken thigh fillets (3.29). There even offered yummy appetisers, like spicy mixed olives (£1.69) or halloumi sticks with chilli jam (£2.49) to choose from.
