Favorite salad (from chain restaurant)



Recommended Posts

Today I tried Panara Breads Cobb salad. I did not like the green goddess dressing but my aunt absolutely loved it. I ate my sandwich and brought the salad home to eat with my bolthouse farms yogurt ranch and it was delicious. I got half sandwich and half salad and that was enough for lunch and dinner. I also like chick fila’s market and south west salads and recently tried Wendy’s apple pecan salad which was okay but the second time it gave me an upset stomach which was weird. Where else can I get a good salad. I am looking for places that I can go with others that are not on a diet.

I really like the apple pecan salad at Wendys too. Other favorites are the Fuji Apple chicken salad at Panera and I really like the Protein bowls at Subway with rotisserie chicken. I don’t know if you’ve got a Culver’s near you but their salads are also really good.

Hummm. I never would have thought about subway having salads (or Protein bowls). I will have to check that out. On their website I see “no bready bowls” I assume that’s them.

I like Panera for salads and the bowls from chipotle. The pollo asado that chipotle has out now is yummy. The salads at Chick-fil-A are pretty good too.

What is the pollo asado exactly? I seen it on the menu but wasn’t really sure. I have never been to chipotle. I heard that their tacos are really good.

The pollo asado is chicken with garlic, lime, peppers and cilantro. I had it on a taco one day. You can order 1 taco at my chipotle it was only $3.50 for my meal - a bargain for chipotle. When I get the bowl, I can get 3 meals out of it, so I guess that’s a bargain too. :)

Zaxby's Buffalo Blue Zalad. I get it with grilled chicken buffaloed, instead of the fried. Ngl, the fried tastes good, but the grilled is healthier.

I love Moe's grilled chicken salad. You can customize it as far as what goes in it and which dressing. I get romaine, pico de gallo, black Beans, black olives, cilantro and jalapenos and shredded cheese with chipotle ranch dressing.

Cheesecake Factory has Skinnylicious salads. I like the Asian Chicken and Skinnylicious Mexican Tortilla salad. And their Thai Chicken salad. Thai salad isn't Skinnylicious.

Ooh I will have to ask my best friend that lives in a little bit bigger city if she has any of those restaurants, especially Zaxby’s because that Buffalo salad sounds delicious. Is the chipotle ranch at Moe’s real spicy? I love ranch but I’m more of a mild type for salsa or wings or whatever. Those skinnylicious salads sound interesting too. If you like Thai salad the tropical smoothie cafe had one that I thought was pretty good (I must confess it was my first ever Thai anything though so you can take that with a grain of salt).

The Moe's salad isn't spicy. I mean the chicken and dressing isn't. The way I get the salad made is spicy because I ask for jalapenos. Think of Moe's like a subway. They customize your order for you. You choose what goes in your salad, burrito, nachos, etc.

I'm not sure if I have a Tropical Smoothie Cafe near me. I'll have to check.

      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.
