Panzanella with Venison Slices

A salad bowl that’s packed full of flavour? This recipe by Matt (@my_plates_or_yours) is definitely spot on. Garlicky, crispy croutons, crunchy bitter leaves and sweet & sour dressing - made even more delicious with rich Venison slices.

Matt says, “Ember only uses high welfare meat in their products. I also like that they’ve reduced the fat content by adding quinoa. They taste fantastic on their own but the venison slices work so well in this salad.”
