Make it a Wendy’s Lunch Date #Wendys #NewSaladCollection

My teen years were filled with Wendy’s lunch dates with my best friend Tammy, the restaurant just happened to be right across the street from our favourite mall! What can I say, the location was perfect and so was the food! Back in the early days we would carefully build our own salads from the Wendy’s salad bar (who else remembers when they had those?? ) and then moved on to their prepackaged garden salads. The tomatoes were always cut a little thick back then and we had a long standing agreement that one of us had to cover the other as we shoved those big juicy maters into our mouths! So many good memories! 


Today my BFF and I live hours apart and these days lunch dates consist of meeting my new bestie (also known as the Hubs) for a quick bite to eat while the kids are in school. It just isn’t a trip to the city if I can’t convince the Hubs to take a work break and join me at Wendy’s for lunch! After a long week of both the flu bug and lice descending on the household, the Hubs and I met up for a little catch up over lunch last week. We both ordered one of Wendy’s new salads, the Asian Cashew Chicken Salad for me and Hubs chose the meaty BBQ Ranch Chicken Salad.

Check out the tasty new Wendy’s Salads!

asian cashew

Asian Cashew Chicken 

* Surprise! This is not your typical Asian salad, it has a spicy kick you may not be expecting with the Asian Chili Vinaigrette dressing (ask for two packages if you are a dressing lover like me, its delish and you’ll want it right to the bottom of the bowl)
* Features fire roasted edamame, fresh red peppers and cucumbers, and a lettuce blend of 11 different kinds of greens 
* Seasoned cashews come wrapped separately
* It’s only 370 Calories!

bbq ranch

BBQ Ranch Chicken

* Think of your typical backyard BBQ in a bowl! Features fire roasted corn, freshly diced tomatoes (the perfect size!), shredded sharp cheddar cheese, and applewood smoked bacon (BACON people!!!)
* You’ll have enough dressing with this one because it also comes dressed with a honey BBQ sauce
* The BBQ Ranch dressing is made with real buttermilk, parmesan cheese, ancho chili peppers, honey and brown sugar
* 590 Calories

Wendy’s salads are prepared fresh in the restaurants every day, and each is topped with 100% premium all white chicken breast meat that is freshly grilled on site, you could literally see the steam rising from the meat! Both salads are offered in a half and full sized serving, we ordered the half and found it to be plenty! And the new Wendy’s salads are 50% lower in fat grams, 29% lower in sodium, and 61% lower in saturated fat.

Make it a Wendy’s Lunch Date!

My lunch date partner might have changed from a girlfriends lunch where we chatted about everything from boys to prom dresses to one of the spousal variety but sharing laughs and making connections sure haven’t. Ever wonder what other ladies are chatting about over lunch? Watch the video below and check out Wendy’s You Tube Channel to take a sneak peek into lunch with Leigh and Angie during Girlfriends at Wendy’s Eating Salads and Talking About Stuff segment.

Whether your BFF is your long time girlfriend or the most in important man in your life, catch up over a fresh Wendy’s salad for lunch! As my bestie Tammy would say “Just feed me and tell me I’m pretty!”
