The last I went I got the Cafe Turkey Sandwich without any cheese or dressing, on the whole grain bread.  I told them to wrap half of it up to go and I would eat half of it there.  Make sure to them you don't want the potato chips!  I forgot that they give potato chips with every order, so I was surprised to find TWO bags with my order (one in my to go bag and one on my tray).  I confess I was weak and ate the chips .  Don't make the same mistake I did!

I went last night for the first time. I got the pick 2- chicken cobb salad and broccoli cheese soup. I ate a little of both. The chicken on the salad was really moist, and I always love boiled egg on my salad. They also have light ranch. :)

While my friends were getting pastries, I got a coffee and waited my hour after I ate to drink it. It was just the right temperature an hour later (I was home by then) ! :)

Enjoy!!

Oh, I love Parnera.  I eat there all the time.  I work as a freelance writer and when I need to get out of the house I take my laptop to Panera and get lunch and sit there and write.  Well, and surf the web.

Lately I've been liking the Fuji apple chicken salad (without any chicken, though, because I don't eat).  It makes two meals for me, I take what I don't eat home for later.

You can check all the nutritional info online.  Jus****ch the dressings on the salads because some are really high in sugar/fat/calories.

Panera is definitely not the healthiest places in the world, but the food tastes great! LOL. Here's a link to the nutrition so you can figure it out for yourself. I just have a low tolerance for fats, carbs, and sugars, so Panera and I aren't really friends anymore.

 Love the fuji apple salad. I don't take any home and just leave half of it there.  It does not taste good to me after it wilts.

 I got the asian sesame chicken salad and it wasn't good. I guess I just picked the wrong thing. I should have gotten the apple salad. 

I did have a quarter of my husbands turkey bacon bravo sandwhich. SO GOOD! Of course it was on amazing tomato basil bread so it isn't the best. Next time I migt get that on wheat bread.
