Tenderstem® broccoli braai salad

Woolworths is committed to sustainability via our good business journey. Seasonal (and other) products might not always be in stock.

Did you know that every inch of Tenderstem®️ broccoli is edible? Char over hot coals to make a braai salad that rivals your mains. Complete the salad with cooked pasta, juicy tomatoes, creamy bocconcini and a zingy pesto to bring everything together. If all braai salads looked this good, we wouldn't even bother with the steaks and chops.
