Two New Salads and Dressings

Two New Dressings!

After reviewing all of your dressing suggestions with Chef Laura, we are excited to announce our Moroccan Tahini and Chipotle Vinaigrette dressings. Both dressings are Vegan and Gluten Free!

Our Moroccan Tahini dressing balances the nuttiness of tahini with a hint of cayenne pepper and a little lemon. This dressing pairs especially well with our Mediterranean Mix salad or wrap. In case you missed it, make sure to check out our new Winter Seasonals as well.

Feeling spicy? Our Chipotle Vinaigrette dressing is full of robust flavor, with a subtle smokiness. Made from chipotle adobo, this dressing adds a nice heat, and a tinge of sweetness, to any salad or wrap!

Order one of our new dressings today!

Chipotle Cowboy and Tuna Nee-Swah!

In our version of the classic Niçoise salad, we combine romaine lettuce with albacore tuna, Kalamata olives, string beans, and a hard boiled egg. Paired with a fresh half lemon wedge and olive oil, our Tuna Nee-Swah is a great way to jump-start healthy eating habits this year.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEE HAW! Our new Chipotle Cowboy has romaine and iceberg lettuces, with grilled chicken, pepper jack cheese, black beans, cilantro, crunchy onions, and avocado. We recommend trying our NEW Chipotle Vinaigrette dressing in this feisty salad.
