On Saturday, we got the chance to head down to Atlanta, meet up with some bloggy friends, and have picnic with Wendy's to taste their new Berry Almond Chicken Salad. Now, you guys know that I have worked with Wendy's before on their Pick Two menu but what you probably don't know is that I still get the same thing from the pick two menu every time I drive through a Wendy's. Its habit. A tasty habit but a habit.
So, needless to say, I was kind of looking forward to trying something new and fresh from Wendy's for the summer. I am happy to say that I was not disappointed. Not in the least. The base of the salad was Wendy’s typical Garden Sensations Salad (11 freshly-chopped greens) and was topped off with blueberries, strawberries, sea salt roasted almonds, Asiago cheese and of course a warm, grilled chicken breast. Of course I had to pick the blueberries off (allergic) but the strawberries in the salad were big and juicy and best of all: fresh. The best part for me though was definitely the dressing. The fat-free raspberry vinaigrette dressing was Marzettis (My favorite) so it packed a perfectly sweet, tangy and antioxidant filled punch. It was the perfect contrast to the salty almonds and fresh greens. So, yeah, I have a new Wendy's favorite.
Look at all that chicken and the chunks of strawberries! Mmm... (dinner) |
We all had a blast hanging out and talking and letting the kids play. I have to admit that it has been absurdly too long since we last got to go out as a family and have a picnic. Of course the boys had a blast enjoying all the fun goodies we brought along and didn't want to leave when it was time to go.
Now, how would you like to try out the Berry Almond Chicken Salad for yourself while treating the rest of your family to lunch as well (or not!)? You're in luck. I have a $25 Wendy's gift card to give to one of you lucky people!

2 - Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger is what hubby always orders at Wendy's as his "main" meal. He loves the size and I also think the price, since they are on the value menu.
