Woolworths Creamy Chicken Pasta Salad Kit :
4.16 out of 5 based on 110 reviews.

Why you’ll love the new Woolworths Creamy Chicken Pasta Salad Kit …

For the Woolworths Creamy Chicken Pasta Salad Kit Product Review we asked mums to try this salad that’s pre-cooked and deliciously flavoured. The salad combines chicken, pasta, corn, parsley and caramalised red onion chutney, in a roasted garlic 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.

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.

  • Nice

    I’m so happy with my experiments that I can do with these woolies salads. So I got 3 of these and added some falafel nuggets and some fresh ricotta to the mix, instead of the chicken. Oh yum. I have to say it turned out so cool that even my son wanted to have more. He is a fussy eater but yeah falafel nuggets made it happen. My hubby loves the garlic dip. Highly recommended.

  • Like it

    So I tried this pack just recently and I would give it 4/5 score. The taste is pretty good and yes the dressing is great too. I love the fact the ingredients are packed separately. That way I can choose which packet i want and which not. This one I did not use the chicken, just added some cottage cheese paneer and boiled egg in lieu of the chicken. It just tasted great. i love mixing salads to get a good blend. Loved the change.

  • Second time around

    I bought this salad again last week and tailored it to my taste, after trying it the first time at the original home trial, with the ingredients in the original tub.
    I like it as the original for a side dish when you have 4 people, but as we’re a couple we wouldn’t eat it all in one go.
    This time we had half for lunch with added corn and tinned peas, fresh sliced Spanish onions and some grated extra tasty cheese. The second half we had on it’s own for dinner the next day.
    I took all the basil leaves off before I mixed in the other ingredients, because if you don’t eat it all straight away the basil leaves become soggy and unappetising.
    I have tried 2 types now and think this is a good one for lunches or any meals.
    Definitely a healthy alternative to sandwiches and wraps.

  • Delicious!

    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. I really enjoyed the roasted garlic dressing! I was extremely impressed with the quality, the taste and the ability to mix the salads anywhere. They will be great for a quick easy dinner on a hot night!

  • Added mushrooms

    Yes I just love mushrooms. So I thought let me swap the chicken with mushrooms.. yep and believe me , it was so good. The whole combination became yum yum and now a vegetarian like me has more choices to eat. The dressing is really good. I would recommend this based on freshness of ingredients.

  • Fantastic!

    My kids and I grabbed this when we were out and about for a quick lunch. Very convenient and we all loved it. The flavour is great. The only thing I would say but this was just for us, is to not put all the parsley in as it was a lot. Very filling and I think it would be a perfect side or great to grab for the summer BBQ salad.

  • I buy this but its not good for a crowd.

    I buy this frequently because it is delicious but its just no good for a crowd or entertaining. Its just to small and gets t pricey to get enough to feed a large amount of people. I really wish they would come out with a large or even extra large pack then i reckon they fly off the shelves.

  • I buy this regularly not great for enteraining.

    I buy this frequently for myself brcause its delicious but it really isnt great for entertaining. Its to small and there not exactly cheap so to buy enough for a crowd would cost a fortune. Id love them to bring out a Xlarge or large size.

  • Yum

    I bought this for tea last night. Yum. It was fresh, convenient and delicious. I warmed the chicken up and it made the creamy sauce more creamier. It was very filling, which I didn’t think it was going to be. I am very happy and will differently be buying more.

  • Good value

    These are great, salad ingredients are expensive and this way there is no wastage . Half the time I buy all the ingredients for a salad and half of it rots in the fridge, I love that these come with the dressing and everything, so easy for a quick midweek dinner for the kids. The flavour combinations are great. I’ll definitely be buying these regularly

  • Great as a time poor option

    I’m a sucker for creamy or pasta anything so this creamy chicken pasta salad was a must try. I make a creamy pasta salad myself but it does take some time to prepare and I often don’t have time after work or am too exhausted. A balanced meal with variety is a priority to us. We liked this salad but would have preferred to use our own whole egg mayonnaise to dress it as opposed to the supplied. Other than that, would buy again!

  • Chicken salad

    I love Woolworths creamy chicken pasta as it not only taste amazing the ingredients are fresh and taste fresh on completion of mixing. The product is definitely value for money and there is sufficient in the container. I take them to work for meals and they are so easy in the morning to grab and go. I would highly recommend this product for anyone especially if they are shift workers or for a quick meal.

  • Convenience without sacrificing taste

    It took weeks to find these in a nearby Woolworths. They don’t seem to be super widely available, making it hard to plan to have them.

    The salad itself was super easy to prepare, though the amount of plastic was concerning. It was simply a matter of dumping everything into the main compartment and mixing with a spoon.

    The caramelised onion was really good. I have made my own in past, so I have high standards for caramelised onion relish and this met those standards. The creamy pasta dressing was nice, and was in good proportion to the amount of pasta/chicken/etc. The chicken tasted nice, but could have done with more in proportion to the rest.

    To serve with a meal you would definitely need another source of vegetables as, even though this is delicious, this salad really doesn’t have enough vegetables as a meal. I imagine it would work well as a side for lazy nights where you just want to throw some chicken/fish in the oven and not really cook, or as a side at a BBQ where there would be plenty of higher-veg dishes to have it with.

  • Our shift worker

    I find the Woolworths salad kit is awesome for a quick grab healthy meal for hubby who is a shift worker . I normally pack his lunch but decided to give this a go . Hubby is not normally big on salad as he is still hungry .
    But he found that it was satisfying.. He works at Green square so he travels from Campbelltown.
    He has fruit to munch on going to work now instead of a packet of crisps
    Salad from Woolworths thank you very much which did enjoy fruit coming home at 9:30 at night . Not getting home till a 11 .. so he misses all the main meals . Now if you are like me and a truly over making for
    Do for shift workers these are perfect . I grab 2 well the other is with him tonight . So no more pizza or maccers for him at work.. looking forward to trying others also ..

I fondly remember slow, summer afternoons with family and friends gathered around a table of delicious finger-food during my childhood – the adults chatting and laughing, the kids pretending they understood the jokes. My parents had continued their Mediterranean traditions long after settling in Australia – and the simple joy of an effortlessly elegant gathering was one of my favourites.

What I don’t remember is my parents ever being stressed about the gatherings. It all just seemed to ‘come together’. Ah, how times have changed!

There’s something about the Italian style of entertaining that’s still so alluring in our fast-paced family lives. The idea of La Dolce Vita: a sweet life surrounded by family, friends, food and minimal fuss. Which is why we’ve enlisted the help of the entertaining experts at Sandhurst to share easy tips for elegant, memorable summer get-togethers.

We also asked our community of mums to share their tried and true, easy summer entertaining ideas, and we can’t wait to share them with you!

Euro-Inspired Entertaining

Sandhurst

Before we dive into the delicious world of sumptuous, simple summer entertaining, it helps to know a little about the inspiration behind our guide. And that’s the concept of Italian entertaining – where time is taken to lovingly grow ingredients, before enjoying them with those you love.

Established in 1988, Sandhurst was born from the time-honoured traditions of generations of the family behind the brand – a proud Italian Australian family passionate about quality produce sourced from world’s best growers.

At the helm of Sandhurst are brothers Mimmo and Ray Lubrano, who live and breathe the impeccable ingredients that become the centrepiece of so many gatherings in Australian family homes.

“Tradition is what we stand for. We’re custodians of Italian values,” explained Mimmo. “When we go to Italy we see it in our grandparents, our parents came from Italy in the 50s. The tradition is a set of values: honesty, teamwork, participation, family – all the things you would associate with Italian family are the values.”

And it’s these beautiful values that make summer gatherings in Australia an extension of the European table.

Easy Summer Entertaining Starts With … Time Saving Secrets!

Sandhurst

A sweet summer of entertaining doesn’t need to be stressful. In fact, it shouldn’t be. It’s a chance to spend time with loved ones. To press pause on life and make memories. And it can be simple! So here are some really easy tips for making your home the place where everyone wants to gather this summer.

Create An Entertaining Kit

Whether it’s pre-planned or you’ve had friends or family drop-in, having a few things ready to go immediately melts away any stress. Here are some things to include in a summer entertaining kit:

  • A red table cloth: It instantly says festive!
  • Some platters and serving dishes
  • Candles
  • Some quality antipasto ingredients that simply need to be decanted and enjoyed!

Many Hands Make Light Work

As mums, we tend to be our own worst enemy when it comes to delegating tasks. But remember, a summer of entertaining is about creating memories – not perfection. So let the kids help, and accept offers from your guests who’d like to bring something along to share.

“It can be overwhelming, so just delegate, and prepare. I do one dish prep per day and pop them in the freezer. Then they just need to be heated up. Let the kids do the decorating for you – plus keeps them busy!” – MoM Member Kirsty

Decorate With Happiness

There’s no need to pull out your finest crystal to pull off an elegant get together. Take a look around your home and garden to see what will bring your table to life. A bowl of lemons is a gorgeous addition, as is a bunch of gum leaves. Keep it simple and understated.

Finger Food For The Win

Nothing says simple summer elegance more than a charcuterie board (or three!). When my friends and our families get together, it’s our go-to – every family is asked to ‘bring a board’. Some do savoury and some sweet, so we’re covered for a long afternoon of catching up.

“Food wise, I keep it simple by doing cold deli meats, cheeses, fresh fruits and veggies.” – MoM Member

But just because boards are easy to put together, doesn’t mean they can’t ooze elegance. And that comes down to including quality ingredients. Choosing Sandhurst products is the easiest way to guarantee the highest quality ends up on your table. We love the premise behind the brand: from our family to yours – it invokes that nostalgic feeling of shared stories, history, gatherings and family.

No fuss, but plenty of substance and style!

  • I Love a good charcuterie board. I Love all the different options all on the one board. I love to do a chocolate board when we have guests over, it’s a fun way to do dessert after dinner. The kids love seeing everything layed out so they can pick and choose.

  • This is great for the grandchildren they love them as they use them as finger food and make up their own meal and use plenty of ingredients including meat and cheese on the dips and crackers. We keep it simple with the Sandhurst’s products as it is a meal in every jar and the kids love them.

  • This looks like the perfect relaxed way to have a picnic! I am loving the idea of this! Just bring along lots of fillings and plenty of cheeses and breads and of course a little alcohol and you’re all set. This sounds like the perfect way to catch up with friends!

  • Certainly most welcome for summer, and would be wonderful for the festive season. I can see this platter on the table Christmas Eve, when we get together with our neighbours.

  • Charcuterie boards are the absolute best! We do these so often in the warmer months because there’s something for the whole family. People pick and choose what they like and there’s no complaints because there’s so many different options to choose from, everyone is happy. It’s such a simple stressful way to make dinner.

  • I absolutely adore finger food and this style of feeding people when we have family and friends at our home; or when we go out for a picnic, bbq or get together. These types of food are so easy to source and to buy and to prepare and to happily eat.


    • Yes I agree, finger foods are easy and yummie ! And you can assemble a healthy enough plate (certainly when you add salads, cheeses, nuts, fruits, boiled eggs, olives and rustic breads) that it can certainly can replace a meal (either lunch or dinner). Everyone happy and no hours of preparation in the kitchen :)



      • Also; the other bonus is less mess to clean up when cutlery is not needed. Finger food is the best for laid back and relaxed get togethers. There is always such a clam and relaxed feel to a finger food meal without the need for any fancy and stuffy table settings.

  • I love the looks of different finger foods. I don’t think it is hard to put something together and I had many afternoons hanging out with many mums and all the children at the Cul the sac we then lived. At times I had 8 mums coming with over 40 kids. Many sweet memories indeed

  • Charcuterie Boards and Antipasto boards are so good. I love them, i love the variety of foods you can put on them and they are so great for entertaining and enjoying with family or friends. It is something i like to make whenever i have friends over as you can enjoy and pick away while you are catching up. Great entertaining option.

  • I absolutely adore an antipasto spread. There’s nothing better than having a colourful plate of charcuterie and antipasto shared with loved ones. I grew up with my Mum making the most lush, long table of nibblies on celebrations and it’s something that my siblings and I carry on today. It brings us all together.
