Following the recent addition of the Power Mediterranean Chicken Salad to its menu, Wendy's is currently testing another healthy salad option. With a growing demand for fresher and more nutrient-rich dishes, the new salad makes fast food accessible to health-conscious consumers.
The new Blueberry Burst Chicken Salad is a healthy salad option made with freshly chopped greens, strawberries, blueberries, roasted almonds and Asiago cheese. The salad is then topped with pieces of grilled chicken breast for added protein. In total, the salad packs a whopping 39 grams of protein, seven grams of fiber and a dose of beneficial antioxidants. Customers can also customize the salad with different dressings or add-ins of their choosing.
Available in both full and half-sizes, the fruity new salad helps the chain appeal to a more health-conscious customer base.
