Whether you’re new to the Salad Bar or a veteran Salad Bar content creator, here are some simple steps for how to get the most out of your Salad Bar experience: 

How to Eat Healthy and Keep Variety at the Salad Bar 

1. Start with Lettuce.  

You want to get your greens, right? Get a little bit of everything with our mixed greens rich in vitamin A, vitamin C, beto-carotene, calcium, fiber, and more! 

2. Have Fun with Fruit and Veggies!  

Pile on the cucumbers, broccoli, red onions, and tomatoes, and maybe even throw in some seasonal fruit!  

3. Include a Lean Protein.

Add some lean proteins like black beans, cottage cheese, diced eggs, and sunflower seeds! 

4. Say Less with Salad Dressing 

Whether it’s Italian, Blue Cheese, or our iconic Ranch, one scoop will do it! Sometimes less is more! 

5. Enjoy a Cup of Chicken Noodle Soup. 

Did you know that soup staves off cold and flu viruses? Yep! Not only is Eat’n Park’s Chicken Noodle Soup delicious, but it can also help protect your immune system.  

Eat’n Park’s Salad Bar is where you call the shots! You can customize your meal exactly the way you want it!  

The Salad Bar opens weekdays at 11AM, Saturdays at noon, and Sundays at 3PM.

But are you getting the most out of your Salad Bar experience? Do you crave new inventive Salad Bar recipes? Here are some of the best Salad Bar ideas that will completely change the way you eat.   

Create a Taco Salad

Cheddar Cheese on Broccoli Soup  

Speaking of cheddar cheese! On Tuesdays, also known as Cream of Broccoli Day, sprinkle some cheddar cheese in your cup to make it Broccoli Cheddar Soup (gamechanger!).  While you’re at it, maybe toss a little bit more fresh broccoli in there for some crunch?  

Chicken Dinner + Salad Bar  

Wish you could add some chicken to your salad creation? When you order Chicken Tenders or Herb-Crusted or Grilled Chicken Dinner entrée, add the Salad Bar for just $4.99 and turn your salad into a chicken salad! Slice up your meal and add the pieces to the mix!   

Liven Up the Salad Bar Pasta Salad  

Add peas, bacon bits, or ham cubes to the Salad Bar Pasta Salad to give it an extra kick!  

Replicate a Popular Flavor   

Are you craving a Cobb Salad? Then you’ll want to start with iceberg lettuce, bacon bits, diced eggs, and tomatoes topped with blue cheese dressing.  

Hankering for a Greek Salad? Fill your plate with mixed greens, cucumbers, tomatoes, feta cheese, black olives, and croutons with balsamic dressing.   

Have the Salad Bar with Every Order  

Did you know you can swap any meal side for the Salad Bar for $3.99? Yep! You can also add the Salad Bar to any meal for just $4.99!
