Salads just got bread-er at Panera Bread, the brand famous for its iconic soup bread bowl is launching its freshest menu innovation: Salad Stuffers – a bread bowl for your salad. Made with an all-new Italian Stuffer Roll deliciously filled with premium salad ingredients, Salad Stuffers transform Panera’s signature salads into an entirely new eating experience that gives you the perfect bite, every time. Your new favorite way to eat salads is here. Panera chefs and bakers innovated the new Italian Stuffer Roll to deliver the ideal balance of fluffy, soft bread and a freshly prepared dressed salad in every bite. Guests can make any salad on the menu a Stuffer, from classics like the Green Goddess Cobb Salad with Chicken or Caesar Salad to two bold, chef-crafted options created specifically for this new innovation, available at participating cafes:

• Steakhouse Salad Stuffer: Crisp romaine and arugula tossed in Panera’s new Farmhouse Ranch dressing made with buttermilk, with tender, marinated sliced steak, applewood smoked bacon, gorgonzola, pickled red onions, grape tomato and crispy frizzled onions, all in our soft, Italian Stuffer Roll.
• Santa Fe Salad Stuffer: Crisp romaine tossed in ranch dressing, with grilled chicken, bold taco seasoning, roasted corn, feta, zesty sweet peppers, pickled red onion, fresh cilantro and blue corn tortilla strips, all in our soft, Italian Stuffer Roll.

“We’re thrilled to bring this innovative menu category nationwide – our guests who tested Salad Stuffers couldn’t get enough of our new Italian Stuffer Roll paired with new, bold salad flavors,” Mark Shambura, Chief Marketing Officer, Panera Bread commented “Just like soup in our bread bowl is the perfect match, Salad Stuffers bring salad and bread together in a way that is sure to be the next icon on the Panera menu.”
