News: Chick-fil-A - New Salads

Chick-fil-A launched three new salads today as well as revamping their Grilled Chicken Cool Wrap. As people look for more health-conscious fast food choices, companies are looking to improve or expand their offerings. As such, Chick-fil-A now offers a new Asian Salad, Cobb Salad, and Grilled Market Salad.

The Asian Salad features sliced Chick-fil-A Nuggets, shredded red and green cabbage, carrots, and mandarin orange segments, on a bed of chopped romaine lettuce and baby greens. It's served with Honey Thai Almonds, Chinese Garlic & Ginger Wontons, and Honey Sesame dressing (or your choice of dressing).

The Cobb Salad comes with sliced Chick-fil-A Nuggets, shredded red cabbage and carrots, roasted corn kernels, shredded Monterey Jack and cheddar cheeses, crumbled bacon, diced eggs, and grape tomatoes, on a bed of chopped romaine lettuce and baby greens. It's served with charred Tomato Crispy Red Bell Peppers and a Avocado Lime dressing (or any dressing you like).

The Grilled Market Salad consists of grilled, sliced chicken breast, shredded red cabbage and carrots, crumbled blue cheese, red and green apples, strawberries, and blueberries, on a bed of chopped romaine lettuce and baby greens. It's served with Harvest Nut Granola, Roasted Nut Blend, and Zesty Apple Cider Vinaigrette (or a choice of dressing).

The salads start at $6.79 in price.

The updated Grilled Chicken Cool Wrap provides a full daily serving of vegetables and lean chicken and comes on a new, all-natural, high-fiber flax bread. The wrap is filled with grilled chicken, green leaf lettuce, shredded red cabbage, carrots and a blend of Monterey Jack and cheddar and served with your choice of dressing (Avocado Lime Ranch is the default). The price starts at $4.89.

Here's a little bit of a neat tip: in Chick-fil-A restaurants, you can request a receipt with order-specific nutritional information at the cash register.
