Taylor Farms says it has introduced two chopped salad kits designed to bring bold flavors and convenience for consumers: Creamy Italian and Jalapeño Popper.

“As a brand that’s always reimagining what’s possible with salad flavors, we saw a chance to reinvent a popular appetizer in a unique way,” Chelsea Perkins, product manager for Taylor Farms, said in a news release. “These fresh, flavor-packed salads add a hint of indulgence while staying true to our roots — healthy, convenient and tasty salad flavors for everyone to enjoy.”

Creamy Italian features a mix of crisp romaine, green and red cabbage, carrots, green onion and kale paired with garlic seasoned crouton crumbles and shaved Parmesan, Asiago and Romano cheeses, topped with rich and creamy Italian dressing.

Jalapeño Popper is a combination of chopped romaine lettuce, carrots, red cabbage and kale, finished with crispy fried onions, Hatch green chili crouton crumbles, smoked white cheddar cheese and a tangy jalapeño popper ranch dressing.

“By pairing our fresh chopped salad greens with crave-worthy dressings, we’re moving salad beyond the side dish occasion and moving it to an exciting part of everyday meal planning,” said Charis Neves, director of innovation and product for Taylor Farms. “These new flavor profiles, whether nostalgic appetizers like jalapeño poppers or classic family recipes with homemade Italian dressing, provide consumers more choices to make lunch and dinner more colorful and delectable.”
