Panera's Hidden Menu



Recommended Posts

As a continuing struggle to maintain my post op weight, I just learned of this today, although some of you may already know about it. It seems Panera has a "secret" menu. You won't see it listed in the restaurant. You have to tell the staff you're ordering from the "Hidden Menu." There is a handful of very low carbs, high Protein options that look really good.

Just ask the sever about the hidden menu.

Ate there yesterday, I had a cup of chicken noodle Soup. 80 calories and I could not eat ALL of it. What I hate is they give you that yummy piece of bread. French or Italian......I am at goal and seldom eat bread unless we are eating out. YES, I ate it. It didn't hurt me, I track it all.....but this was hard, I just guessed on the bread when logging. Does anyone know how many calories are in the bread they include with soup?????

I am going to see if this menu is for real and try it out on my way home this afternoon. Been dying to exploit this place for healthy eating. Bwhahahaha....

Eating their chicken hummus salad. Really good!!!! No way I can eat like even 1/4 this, but I am thrilled to be able to eat here. When I mentioned wanting to eat off their secret menu, the cashiers eyes lit up and they were really pleased and excited to be selling it. People go eat off their hidden menu!!!! You won't regret it. Edit - no idea how mystery picture ended up below.

It's not really a specific "hidden menu". It isn't something that they keep under the counter that you have to ask for. Panera will modify just about any menu item to suit the tastes of their guests. Just just have to tell them what you want. I just did a one day internship at a Panera this past week, and we talked specifically about the "secret menu". It is just in the way you order something. Panera is big on making the customer's happy and this is just another way of doing so. You can order what ever you want, that is on their menu, any way you want it made up.

I am so looking forward to trying the egg and steak salad! I told my coworker about the hidden menu and he didn't believe me. His loss!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
