Hi all,

I was wondering about Wendy's Salads. I love the Chick, Blt Salad. It makes for a quick meal on the way to work (I work 3rd shift). According to their website the Salad has 10 carbs minus the Croutons and dressing. The Salad comes with a few cherry tomatoes. How would go about figuring out the carbs if I take away the tomatoes?

Thanks,

Jim

6 cherry tomatoes has 4.7 total carbs, making the salad 5.3 total carbs. You would then need to subtract the fiber from the remaining items to give you your net impact carbs for the salad.

sorry,

I gave you info re the website but didn't realize you visited already.

good luck

I get the chicken blt salad with the low-fat ranch dressing (6 carbs) and I get them to substitute the croutons for the roasted sliced almonds...

I usually eat this salad 4-5 times a week.

Finally fast "lo carb" food.

Callahan, they have a Bleu Cheese dressing that I get with the salad that only has 3 carbs. Even know it has a little sugar in it (they all do), I believe it is the lesser of all the evils

The salad is actually only 6 carbs as on the website it states 10 for the salad minus 4 for the fibre....if you lose the tomatoes it would be slightly less depending on the amount (3 or 4 cherry tomatoes?). And go for the regular ranch instead of the lf as I think it has less carbs.

Enjoy!

The ceasar dressing has only 1 carb per package. From what I can tell no sugar either. I think this is a great meal when out on the road. Thanks for the almond tip..didn't know they had them.

Absolutely yummy with the Caesar dressing! It's a great thing to stop and eat when you're on the road!

I love this salad, too. Great idea for the almonds! And nice to know about the other dressing options. I think I might have to go and have this tomorrow! Sounds good!
