Last week, my daughter and I went to Wendy’s. I was disappointed to find they no longer had the Cobb Salad I had fallen in love with. However, I found a new love, the Strawberry Fields Chicken Salad. Topped with strawberries, chicken, bacon, red onion, blue cheese, and honey roasted sunflower seeds; it was a little bit of love in every bite! They offered me an Apple Vinaigrette Dressing, but I opted instead for the Lemon Caesar.
Needless to say, I think the new Strawberry Fields Chicken Salad is wonderful! So much so, that I decided to recreate it at home. At home, I topped it with sweet (Kraft) Catalina dressing and was amazed at how much more it brought out the natural sweetness of my strawberries.
Arriving just in time for my Wendy’s Strawberry Fields Chicken Salad Copycat Recipe, was a new Pro-Freshionals Cut Fruit Bowl. Although the bowl is intended for fresh cut fruit, I found a couple of ways to use it as I prepped for my salad. The inner, pink bowl is actually a colander. It worked well to hold my strawberries as I washed and stemmed them. I then used it to rinse my salad greens. My sink was full, so I just dropped it back into the outer, green bowl and left it on the countertop to drain. After the salad greens completely drained, I just used the spout to pour out the water that collected below.

This is the whole goal behind the Pro-Freshionals Cut Fruit Bowl, to allow fruit to stay fresher by draining their excess liquids. It did a remarkable job of keeping my salad fresh for three days, as well. Even with everything mixed together, it stayed fresh and crisp from day 1 thru 3. I was really surprised. I expected mushy, soggy lettuce by the third day.
Another way that I foresee using the Pro-Freshionals Cut Fruit Bowl, is to chill or perk up warm or wilted salad greens. Sometimes, I like to really plump up my salad when it isn’t looking very perky. I fill my sink with ice and water before tossing in the greens. Of course, this involves scrubbing down the sink and hoping that I don’t need it any time soon. Instead, I can add the ice and water to the bowl, stick it in the fridge, and pull it out later when it’s perked up. Then just lift the colander out to drain.
This bowl is awesome and versatile! Head to your nearest Bed, Bath, and Beyond to get one for yourself.
Generously seasons all chicken breasts with lemon pepper. Coat with olive oil. Allow to sit for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400*.
Line a large roasting pan with foil. Place a cookie rack inside the roasting pan. Spread bacon out across the rack. Double stack the bacon if needed, at first, then spread it out more as it cooks. Cook bacon in the oven until crispy.
While bacon is cooking, place chicken on a well-seasoned , cast iron grill pan or other cookware to bake. Bake until golden on the outside and no longer pink on the inside.
The bacon and the chicken usually get finished around the same time.
While the bacon and chicken are cooking, clean and quarter the strawberries. Prep the salad greens, and gather the other ingredients.
Once the bacon is cooked, crumble it into bite-size or smaller pieces.
Like their other craft salads, the Strawberry Salad is made fresh daily. Fresh strawberries and grilled chicken are piled on top of a bed of spring mix lettuce.Add in smoky applewood bacon, a Tuscan cheese blend, candied almonds and a champagne vinaigrette, and you have a recipe for a flavor explosion in every bite.

The Wendy's Big Bacon Classic Triple Burger may be the worst thing on the menu, with 1,220 calories in just one sandwich. And don't forget about the 36 grams of saturated fat— or 163% of the recommended daily value (DV) of just 22 grams per day—and 10% of your daily calories.
Wendy's stops putting lettuce on sandwiches in Ohio, Pennsylvania amidst E. coli investigation. Wendy's has announced that it is removing lettuce from sandwiches sold in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and two other states as a precaution as the CDC investigates cases of E.Coli reported in those states and Mahoning County.
The lettuce used in McDonald's salads was different from the lettuce used in the chain's burgers. By getting rid of the salads, McDonald's was able to both deal with supply shortages and save money in the process. The pandemic also caused the company to consider other factors as well.
Wendy's confirmed to TODAY.com that it has discontinued the Grilled Chicken Sandwich to make way for the new Grilled Chicken Ranch Wrap, which seems to be a dupe of McDonald's discontinued Chicken Wrap Snack Wrap.
