Why you’ll love the new Woolworths Classic Greek Salad Kit …
For the Woolworths Classic Greek Salad Kit Product Review we asked mums to try the delicious Greek Salad Kit combining cucumber, cherry tomatoes, fetta and olives in a classic Greek dressing.
All ingredients are packaged separately within the larger salad container for freshness and crunch. So all you have to do is mix them together just before serving.
Here’s an awesome 10 Minute, 1 Pan Dinner idea using the Woolworths Classic Greek Salad Kit …
How easy is that? No needing to buy (and prepare) all the separate ingredients! Just tip into a bowl, mix and serve.
We think these Woolworths Salad Kits are a brilliant idea for those times when you’re asked to bring a salad along to a BBQ or party … or even a picnic! And they are absolutely an inspired choice for busy weeknight dinners when you only have minutes to put dinner together.
Healthy Quick, Easy Midweek meals don’t get easier than this!
Woolies Greek Salad Kit is the perfect accompaniment to busy weekday dinners. Perfect mix of cucumber, mild Spanish onion, Feta, Tomato, Olives & Greek Dressing. One night, whip up a quick Spaghetti Bolognese, Crusty Bread & add this Greek Salad. Another night, grill some chicken fillets with a sprinkling of Tuscan seasoning with this salad. Healthy Quick & Easy Midweek meals don’t get better than this!

So it was pizza night tonight. I was way too tired from work, so I didn’t cook. Rather I just bought 2 apcks of sale kits.. one Greek salad and the other roasted pumpkin. My son loved have the two salads as his main.. haha. Yeah he preferred the salads over pizza. He enjoyed it and so I think this will be a perfect combination from now on . Recommend trying.

The Greek salad is my fav out of the whole lot of woolies salads. I like the Greek salad mainly because of the dressing. The taste is just great. I have tried this several time when I used to go the office. Would grab it around lunch time and just have a quick mix to have an awesome and healthy lunch ready. I have tried it with my family and they love it too. So it’s a winner at my place. Highly recommended.

Had to buy these after reading the reviews! Mid week meals made easy!
These are such an amazing concept for working families. I wasn’t on the review panel but after reading reviews and seeing Nikki’s ideas for recipes and just how easy it was to make a meal, I got the greek salad kit and some lamb from woolies. it wasn’t quite 10 mins but I’d knocked up dinner in 15, very little mess, super healthy and I didn’t have to think, which as a busy working mum, is an absolute godsend as it’s one of my biggest stress points during the working week. I just put the creamy pasta salad in yesterday’s online order so looking forward to checking that out when it arrives!

The Salad kit was delicious and a healthy option on those “don’t want to cook nights”. I think for the price it could have been a bit larger size and I did find it hard to actually get in stock of the Greek salad kit at my local woollies but I would definitely buy again and recommend.

The Greek salad was really good. The cucumbers were crunchy and fresh and the whole salad was delicious and refreshing. The dressing was a bit tangy but complimented the salad well. My partner and I both enjoyed it and will definitely be purchasing this one again and we will be trying the different flavours.

These salads have saved my sanity of the Christmas break. I was able to find these salads easily at my local Woolworths deli. All 5 salads were available at my Woolworths in regional country Vic. The salads were at the kids eyeline, they got excited that they could see the salads, everything bright coloured and so appealing. We chose Spanish Style Pasta Salad Kit to start with as a side dish and they loved it. Everything was so easy to throw together in the container, my 12 year old enjoyed making it. There was just the right amount for our large family of 9. There was the right amount of chorizo, making it not too spicy for the kids to eat. I liked that the basil was shredded making it not too overpowering, a good balance when mixed with the pasta.
Since it was a huge hit, we went back the next day to get another, choosing Greek Salad Kit. Gave it to my 14 year old to make while cooking the barbecue. She found it so easy to mix together, again in the container. Once again, it was fantastic! Everything so fresh and tasted great. All the kids loved it, even my fussy inlaws thought it was great! Since I’m not a fan of olives, I was able to mix everything else, dish myself up some and then mix the olive through! The perfect amount of dressing that it didn’t make the salad go soggy. The cherry tomatoes were ripe and delicious!
Finally we chose to have the Creamy Chicken Pasta Salad for lunch and it was great! Huge pieces of chicken and the caramelised red onion chutney was delicious. Hubby thought it would be great in a wrap! I really enjoyed the roasted garlic dressing!
Overall, I was extremely impressed with the quality and the ability to mix the salads anywhere. Great value for money and generous serving sizes. They were prefect for a barbecue and everyone enjoyed it. My kids were actually excited to have salads again. everything was in the right proportions, that there wasn’t too much of something and we were able to remove things we didn’t want or like. Extremely convenient. Hubby said he would love to try them for work lunches if they were in single serves.

The WW Greek Salad Kit is great. It is presented well with the olives, fetta cubes and sliced red onion included in separate compartments in the top section. Underneath I discovered the cucumber and ripe cherry tomatoes with a sachet of Greek salad dressing. Too much cucumber and the flavour of the olives somewhat diminishes what could be a great salad. Improved tasting kalamata olives as well as some capsicum would be a welcome addition.

I was very impressed with this salad kit (although I would have preferred less cucumber and some green peppers in it). It was well packaged and sealed well to keep in the freshness.
Greek salad is very versatile and goes with so many meals, which is why I picked this particular kit to try. I added green peppers and served with Flame roasted sweet honey mustard ham and crusty bread.
(As a side note, I actually find that unless there is a lot of volume with a salad, it is better served on a plate or platter to ensure all ingredients are coated with the dressing, rather than the dressing just sitting in the bottom of the bowl.)
Taste wise, everything was crisp, crunchy and fresh, and the dressing was plentiful and tangy.
Overall, I enjoyed this salad kit. The price isn’t too bad considering what you would pay for a Greek salad if out and about, and it wasn’t packed out with tons of leaves – some green peppers and more Feta and it would be great value!

Whilst I do love the Woolworths salad kits, I prefer the Greek salad kits made by Coles. I feel the Coles ones are better value. The Woolworths kits are all in the same plastic box whereas the Coles brand have a plastic tray with partitions to segregate the olives from the feta etc. Overall, the Coles
salads are my preferred option in this instance.

These salads are probably a little pricey for what they actually are. The one I tried was 90% cucumber and not a lot of other ingredients. It was really yummy still, but I think they’re expensive for what they are.

I bought a Woolworths Classic Greek Salad Kit after reading some very positive reviews. I often like a salad for lunch whereas hubby is not really a salad person so buying one of these salad kits works perfectly for me. One of my favourite salads is a Classic Greek and I find the mix of fetta, olives, tomatoes and cucumber along with the lettuce in these kits is just right and the tanginess of the dressing is amazing. I’ve had a few kits now and they have always been fresh and crisp. I admit it’s not the most economical way of buying a salad but for the convenience it suits me.

so disappointed with this Greek Salad – The lettuce is limp and the rest – the salad is in oversized large chunks just to fill the box quicker. For the price – really not worth it.
Easy to make a fresh salad yourself instead of buying this box – if you have the time. Will taste a lot better and cheaper in the long run.
Sorry but would not buy this again and do not recommend anyone to buy – just not worth the month for a limp day old salad +

Convenient and yum yes, good for our environment no
While I don’t have anything bad to say about the quality, taste or the convenience aspect; a greek salad is one of the easiest salads to prepare and without all the unnecessary plastics! I get it convenience is a big thing especially when balancing kids, social and work life but we should be instilling these environmentally conscious efforts into our kids because they’re going to be the ones to inherit the earth we leave them. Not trying to shame anyone but if you’re desperate and need a greek salad ASAP this does the trick!

We were skeptical at first, wondering why you’d buy a ready-made Greek salad as it’s one of the easiest salads to make. Lamb backstrap was on the menu and we were keen to give the Woolworths Greek salad a go. The vegetables and cheese were fresh (yummy crunchy cucumber!) and very easy to assemble. We liked the tanginess of the dressing – nothing worse than a subtle dressing! The addition of grilled halloumi rounded out our Greek themed dinner. Delicious!

Woolworths salad kits are my take to work lunch. They taste fresh and are always crispy. They are not expensive compared to the price of lunches these days purchased in shops. The dressing satchel that is added to the salad kits is off perfect portions that you can add only the amount that you personally require to your taste. I have purchased them to use at home as a salad with pasta or lasagna or even to take to family functions.

On the shelf these kits seem like a great product you don’t have to buy the ingredients go home wash and chop the ingredients. It’s also a reasonable Price so is a great alternative for those of us who are time poor and still want to eat healthy. However after opening my salad I found the ingredients were incredibly hard and dry even after adding the tiny tub of dressing. I would not recommend serving these as a side dish but more a crispy stir fry or salad. Personally we won’t buy again and are going to stick to the old fashioned way wash and chop.

The taste was good. The contents of the salad kit was also fine. The portion size could have been bigger especially for the cost. If you were getting this for four people I found it a bit small. You would be better off buying the ingredients separately as it would cost about the same price and you would get a salad about three times the size

How to choose the best lunch box for school
When you’re searching for a kids’ lunch box, take the time to work out what will best suit their needs. If you make the right choice and invest in a quality one, it will last many years.
Box, bento or bag? If your child doesn’t like different foods touching, a bento lunch box is a great choice. Also, think about whether they prefer cut-up or whole fruit; a bento is better suited to cut food, while bags and boxes suit whole fruit. Bags are fantastic if you like to pack separate containers, like smaller bento or snack containers.
Freshness is a must – An insulated bag or box will keep everything cool and fresh until snack and lunchtime. But you can also get boxes that come with cold and ice packs. Remember, kids’ lunches often sit at room temperature for up to 5 or 6 hours before they’re eaten, so insulation and coolness are important. Check out how to keep school lunches safe in the heat.
Easy-to-clean design – Check if the box is dishwasher-safe, or for lunch bags, if they’re machine-washable.
Leak-proof – The last thing you want is a soggy mess at lunchtime, so if buying a hard lunch box, look for designs that are leak-proof with proper seals.
Child-friendly – Depending on your child’s motor skills and independence, you may need to start with a product that’s simple to open and close.
The right size – We tend to pack way too much in our kids’ lunches, so think about how much realistically you’ll need to pack for your child when choosing the size of their lunch box. You may also need to consider the size of their school bags.

The spill-proof individual compartments mean no mixing of savoury and sweet, and the 280ml double-wall thermos keeps soups and pasta hot for up to six hours!
Health professionals agree that kids need a good balance of lean protein, grains, fruit and vegetables throughout the school day. Skip the processed food and try to reach for whole foods that pack a punch in the nutrient department. Here are some great ideas:
Grilled chicken or turkey wraps with fresh salad
Crackers and vegetable sticks with healthy dips like hummus
Whole-grain pasta with cherry tomatoes and your choice of cheese
Zucchini slice cut into rectangles for easy stacking in an insulated box
Getting ready for the return to school has started to kick in so this was a timely read. We have the yum box and i love it, it is so easy for my daughter to open and close on her own. I find the lunch cooler bags also a great idea however some days depending on what else needs to go to school, they can be quite bulky to include in the school bag. I need to do some more research this year as i like the idea of being able to watch it in the washing machine, that is a clever idea.
Along with all of the other back to school products; there is also a good range of lunch boxes available for people to buy. It has been fun to see the wide range of bottles and lunch boxes that are available for the new year for school and for work.
Lunch boxes have come such a long way since my eldest was a kid, he’s now 26! There’s really a solution to everything from food heating, cooling, dividers, pockets etc etc. Lunch boxes are a real fashion accessory and so on-trend these days. I personally love the Bento lunch boxes. They save on plastic and separate different foods.
I am such a huge fan of Bento lunch boxes and Bento. Food should be so many wonderful things; including delicious, fun, colourful and nutritious too. Lunch is a favourite meal because the body is ready for some more calories and a boost of energy. Food looks so good in Bento lunch boxes.
So so many fantastic options! We use the montii co ones for our kdis and swear by it. Its lasted 3 years so far and still standing strong, like new since the first day using it. They are so durable and i find cleaning them to be the easiest for us.
There are so many great lunch box option out there indeed ! I’ve always liked the Bento style lunch boxes for my kids. It reduces the use of plastic lunch bags and packaged food which aren’t very good for the environment and it encourages to present a good variety of foods (which is not only better nutrition wise but lao to prevent our kids from getting bored with same foods all the time.
There are some really fabulous options here. So many variations of colour, shape and size. I love the bento style lunch boxes, so handy to keep food separate and eliminate the use of plastic packaging. The machine washable bags are a great idea too. They can get grubby so fast, this would be so much easier to maintain
This has gotten much easier since my kids hit high school – they have strong opinions about their lunch boxes, so I don’t have to think about it so much anymore! However, I am strongly in favor of bento style boxes regardless of their age. They’re easy to clean, easy to pack, and invite appropriate sized portions.
Great article! Our kids are so lucky, when it comes to lunchboxes, they really are spoilt for choice. There are so many to pick from. Regarding sandwiches, my eldest son, used to hate sandwiches for school lunches. It wasn’t until many years later that I discovered that he’d throw out his sandwiches in the playground bins. My son’s an adult now and he still hates sandwiches. He only likes “hot” lunches. So glad he lives on his own now and can make his own “hot” lunches just the way he likes them.
This is an extremely useful article!! 2 schppl going kids and third starting kinder soon means we are always on the lookout for lunch ideas and lunch boxes. This is a great list with features and prices listed to make the search easier and help with decision making for purchasing of the lunch boxes
This is super useful article and thank you. I can see so variety of lunch boxes from every store. Always wonder which one would be more convenient to use by little hands. I love some of these lunchboxes to give it a try for this year. And then decide to go with suitable ones
Wow, lunch boxes have really come such a long way from when I was taking a lunch box to school. Feel old, like “back in my day”, but we were lucky to have options like are available now. While I like some of these designs, I feel like they aren’t super practical.
These lunchboxes are beautiful but are they really worth the expensive price tag? I have been through so many lunch boxes and bags over the years and found the best it to use an insulated lunchbox bag with ice brick and use small containers to keep individual items fresh and assessable.
I love the bbox lunch boxes. They are so reliable and tough when kids throw their bags around. Easy to wash and store. I have used the we can be tiny snackies at home too. The boys love choosing a certain animal shape. They wash well, are durable and great quality.
My kids are old enough now to pack their own lunches and I am so happy to see the great choices they are making. They take left over meals, cook food in the morning to take and now I am confident they aren’t throwing away sandwiches! I do have the chilly bags for them, I find they fit better into bags
My daughter uses a bento box now for work and sometimes an insulated bag in summer, but when she was at school it was a rectangular lunch box with no compartments. It was very easy to wash each day, just the box and lid, and it could still be filled with rolls/sandwiches and snacks.
Lunchboxes are so important these days. Back in my day it was a brown paper bag or the exact same lunch box that everyone else had and there were three compartments. Today its such a fashion statement and as much as the lunchbox itself is judged so are the contents.
I absolutely love the bb box quite sturdy. It took many lunch box to find one that would last. Before this lunch box we had a stuck on you. I found the stuck on you lunch box didn’t last when the hinge’s snapped they wouldn’t get back to me (only had for a short time and my youngest couldn’t open it so it wasn’t dropped. Just opened it after the 8th time and snapped). The bb box has lasted the last year and a half and still going strong
What a great help for busy Mommas like us. From the style to comfort and convenience, this article really put the best for our kids. Not to mention the added info about safety on what these lunchboxes were made of! I am also impressed about the organisation function of each, it seems small but woooh could put so much…thanks for sharing this article
