Limited Time Offer Showcases Seasonal Ingredients

May 6, 2024 – Oakville, ON – For many Canadians, picking berries is a cherished summertime tradition. To kickstart the season’s festivities, The Chopped Leaf is inviting Canadians to indulge in the vibrant flavours of summer with its enticing Berry Breeze Salad. Bursting with berries – a quintessential symbol of health, wellness and wholesome living – this limited time menu item adds another delicious and nutritious option for those seeking a quick and healthy lunch or dinner.

“You won’t be able to take one bite of this salad without enjoying a berry,” said Karen Paradine, Head of Marketing at The Chopped Leaf. “We like to delight our guests with limited-time menu items like our Berry Breeze Salad, especially when we can highlight seasonal ingredients. Last month we featured a limited-time offer (LTO) Chicken Cobb Salad, which was a high protein, high flavour option that guests could order in addition to their favourite feature salads, bowls or wraps. These LTOs create interest and excitement for our regular guests and can entice new customers to our healthy-lifestyle brand.”

The Berry Breeze Salad is packed with blueberries, sundried cranberries and tossed with The Chopped Leaf’s signature Raspberry Fruit Dressing. It comes on a bed of Chopped Mix greens, with diced apples, feta cheese, roasted pecans and a choice of protein to round out the fresh, power-packed nutritious salad.

“Food is fuel, so it’s important to make nutritious choices, but we also want to enjoy what we eat!” added Paradine. “At The Chopped Leaf our chef is focused on creating meals that meet both of those objectives. We want people to love what they’re eating and also feel good after they eat!”

The Chopped Leaf provides nutrition and allergen information for all menu items so that guests can meet their individual dietary requirements or preferences.
