As a freelance creative director, I often work from an office, and lately I’ve been working in central London, in the middle of Leicester Square. Affordable lunch options in this area are scarce. For instance, a simple takeout chicken Caesar salad can set you back around £5 from a supermarket, and they’re rarely satisfying. Scrolling through the delivery apps, I found the priciest at a whopping £15.95, plus a delivery charge.
Not prepared to part with that amount of cash, I’ve prepared two chicken Caesar salads for £4.27 each, using store bought ingredients, try my ‘how to’ chicken Caesar salad below. (I’ve swapped croutons with dried onions as I’m not a fan).
