I'm off to nandos for tea, and am going to have the butterfly chicken breast (yummy protein goodness), but i am not sure which sides to have?

My usual is chips and coleslaw, but i dont have the calories for that today, and i dont really want to spend good money on 25 calories of leaf and cucumber by getting the side salad!!!

so my question to you pals, which is your favourite side?!

    Mmmmm. Nando's. I don't go nearly enough, and have 2 in the city I work in (but they are far away.)

    I always get the fries. They are horribly good.

    And the xxxxxxxxtra hot sauce covering everything.

    I use to have peri chips and creamy mash <3
    Though as that is just a complete potato overload, I would now pick corn on the cob over the chips :)

    I will never ever not order creamy mash, it is the most delicious thing in the universe ^_^

    Guessing what you call call chips, I call fries?

    I don't remember my local ones having sweet potato though. I need to go back.

    as a bit of a nandos nerd if you have butterfly you automatically get two reg sides or one fino, i always go for one fino and get sweet potato mash so I dont end up eating twice as much! Well unless I'm not in a calorie counting mood haha :)

    Just looked it up, yes, we have Red Skinned Mashed Potatoes.

    Shame, (they are still amazing) but Sweet Potatoes sound even more wonderful. Sigh.

    I love the hummus with peri-peri drizzle as well. I wish I could buy large containers of just the drizzle.

    I always have either chips and corn or the ratatouille depending on what my calories look like for the day :)
