Don’t like salad? Good news, there are more delicious keto and low carb options for breakfast, lunch and dinner!

Before diving into the menu, here are a few things to know about Salad and Go:

  • Affordable prices ($5.74 $6.24 salads and wraps, $2.99 $3.24 breakfast burritos, $1.24 drinks!)
  • Plethora of customizable options

This post was updated on 7/22/22 to reflect price changes, most likely due to inflation. Also added, new option for Salad and Go Breakfast Bowls and great keto snack options!

This drive-thru salad concept is not only delicious with a healthy and customizable menu – it’s cheap! Bonus, there are several Salad and Go keto options that you will love. Don’t believe me? Remember, they don’t just serve salads. Let’s look at the menu.

What is on the Salad and Go Menu?

Here is a peek at the Salad and Go menu for breakfast and lunch/dinner. There are several food items to choose from.

While each category on the Salad and Go menu offers pre-built options, you are able to easily customize each item you order. (TIP! Order online for easy customizing to make keto ordering easy!)

Salad and Go Breakfast Menu

You can order from the breakfast menu and salads during Salad and Go breakfast hours.

  • Salad and Go Breakfast Hours Monday – Friday: 6:30am-10:30am
  • Weekends Breakfast Hours: 7am-11am

On the Salad and Go Breakfast menu, we have breakfast burritos. Each breakfast burrito ordered as is are just $2.99. Each burrito comes with a side of their homemade salsa (10 calories!) Keep reading and we will tell you how to order a Salad and Go keto breakfast!

Here are the base breakfast burritos that you can customize:

  • Traditional – egg, potatoes, bacon, pepper jack cheese
  • Fiesta – egg, potatoes, turkey sausage, pepper jack cheese, pico de gallo, tortilla chips
  • Southwest – egg, turkey sausage, pepper jack cheese, roasted poblano peppers.
  • Bacon, egg and cheese
  • Turkey sausage, egg and cheese

Keto Salad and Go Breakfast Menu

When you are ordering a Keto Salad and Go breakfast, here are some great low carb food options and things to know. Unfortunately at this time, the tortillas on the breakfast burrito are a giant NO when it comes to keto and low carb.

Breakfast Bowls

Good news! Salad and Go now offers Breakfast Bowls, making Keto easy to customize your order and eat.

salad and go breakfast menu

Here are some suggestions for eating a keto Salad and Go breakfast bowl:

  • Keto Breakfast Bowl – you can customize your breakfast options in the app.
  • Keto Breakfast Taco – bring low carb tortillas

This allows you to eat a delicious low carb keto breakfast, all customizable! Here are the low carb ingredients we like to add to our combinations when ordering your Salad and Go breakfast bowl. You are given 2 different options, here is how to customize to be keto friendly.

Traditional Breakfast Bowl

Customize the traditional breakfast bowl with keto friendly options. Make sure to remote breakfast potatoes from your bowl as they are not keto friendly.

Here are some options that you can add to your Traditional or Fiesta Salad and Go Breakfast Bowl:

  • Salsa
  • Grilled Chicken
  • Buffalo Chicken
  • Turkey Sausage
  • Mozzarella Cheese
  • Feta Cheese
  • Pepper Jack Cheese
  • Bacon (Nitrate-Free)
  • Avocado
  • Spinach
  • Blue Cheese Crumbles
  • Pico de Gallo
  • Roasted Poblano Peppers

Remember, you can always bring along a low carb keto tortilla and enjoy your breakfast bowl as a keto breakfast burrito!

  • Bacon, egg and cheese breakfast burrito – as-is or add options if you want (avocado, anyone?)
  • Turkey sausage, egg and cheese – same as above
  • Southwest – order as-is or customize with low carb options

You will want to avoid potatoes on your breakfast as they will spike your blood sugar and are not keto friendly!

When customizing your breakfast burrito, some options -such as extra protein may set you back – but all food upgrades are VERY affordable. (99 cents and 30 cents depending on customization.)

TIP! Order lunch or dinner while you are ordering breakfast. Here are the options and of course, we will give you the low down on what to eat low carb.

Salad and Go Salads

The Salad and Go salad has to be the star of the show. I mean, the company is named after this. We mentioned earlier – but will again here, the salads are only $5.74 (plus any add-ons you add.)

UPDATE: Some prices may have changed to $5.99 or $6.29 depending on location. This is still a VERY reasonable price for the keto salad or keto breakfast bowl options!

Another bonus, unlike the breakfast burritos, you have the option to create your own salad.

Dressings

Before we show you how to order your low carb salad, something to note – as with most salads a lot of the carbohydrate count comes down to the dressing. So let’s tacking the salad dressing first.

Each packet of Salad and Go dressing is 2.5 servings which equals 5 tbsp or 2.5 oz. Below is the nutritional data for 1 serving which is approximately serving size is 2 tbsp or 1 oz. Using the dressing nutritional data below, make the best choice for your daily macros. You can order up to 2 packets of salad dressing per order. (That equals 5 servings of dressing, watch those macros!)

Unfortunately, the Salad and Go nutritional facts show no dietary fiber macros so the carbohydrate count is equal to the net carb estimate. Based on information, choose the Salad and Go dressings for your salad that works best for you.

Build Your Own Salad

My choice is the build your own salad. This lets me pick all the exact ingredients that I know that I enjoy to make a delicious low carb salad that is keto friendly!

I enjoy adding avocado, bacon, egg and feta to get my protein in. For vegetables, I love me some red cabbage, organic cucumbers, onions and depending on what flavor I am swaying towards, the peppers.

More Menu Items

Wanting a little protein on the go? The Salad and Go protein box makes a GREAT keto snack idea (or kid meal!) Featuring you choice of any 2 salad ingredients, served with ranch dressing. Buy the protein boxes ahead of time, perfect for those mid-day hangry moments.

In addition to the above, Salad and Go Menu does offer delicious wraps and 3 bean chili soup. Unfortunately, these are not keto friendly. You could order a Salad and Go wrap and substitute your own low carb tortilla or use a keto bread to make a sandwich.

Drink Menu

While I am trying my best to drink a gallon of water a day, I do love some ice tea. The Salad and Go drink menu is only $1! That’s right, only a buck for a drink. Here are the low carb options for drinks:

  • Organic Cold Brew – bring your own creamer to ensure you stay in your macros.
  • Organic Black Tea – either drink without sweetener, or choose to add stevia.
  • Water – can’t go wrong with good ole H20! (bonus, it’s free!)

Keto Protein Box Snack

This is a new find that I totally loved. I was hangry for a snack and came across the Salad and Go Kids Protein Box. While this is intended as a side or a kids meal, this makes an AWESOME keto snack!

For $3.99, chose the Salad and Go Kids Protein Box from their app or website (or drive-thru.) You can choose 1 protein and 2 sides. For my keto protein snack box, I chose grilled chicken, avocado and mozzarella cheese.

i'm sorry for what i said when i was hangry

Don’t miss our diet memes, including this hangry LOL, IYKYK!

Optional dressing is included in your protein snack box! This is a great option if you are driving thru and just need something to get you by.

I have been ordering thru the website, but recently discovered that there is a Salad and Go app! The app allows you to find locations near you and to easily order online.

Is Salad and Go Healthy?

Yes, Salad and Go offers healthy food options at affordable prices in a fast food, drive-thru setting.

Go Visit!

I first learned about Salad an Go from Facebook where the local moms group was BUZZING. We live in the Dallas metroplex and apparently the Salad and Go Plano location was the hot place for grab and go salads. Moms were confessing to going 5 times a week (it’s a good 30 minutes drive, before our the new Salad and Go location opened.)

Healthy Cheap Fast Food

This concept is unique and hopefully a game changer. The idea of non-greasy food that is healthy and affordable while served quickly has been a dream. Guess what, that dream became a reality!

salad meme - what if hear me out there was a fast food restaurant that sold healthy food rather than greasy murder plates? Don't get me wrong, I eat those greasy murder plates and supersize them. But I'm just saying what if there was another way?
