Made with brown sugar walnuts, drizzled with a savory Apple Cider Vinaigrette by Marzetti Simply Dressed and topped with crisp red and green apples, Wendy's Harvest Chicken Salad delivers that warm, nutty, spiced and delicious taste of fall you've been looking forward to. It's a satisfying yet positive food choice you can fall back on this season, delivering a little more than two cups of fruits and vegetables when you order a full-size entrée.

So, whether you're swinging through the drive-thru to get dinner on the table, ordering lunch delivered straight to your office through DoorDash**, or squeezing in a quick bite during the in-between, Wendy's Harvest Chicken Salad is a fresh, flavorful and convenient option that makes it easy to do a little something for yourself while still making strides toward your everyday goals and responsibilities.

"The first time I tried our new Harvest Chicken Salad, it was so good that I immediately wanted everyone else to try it too," said Kurt Kane, Wendy's executive vice president, chief concept and marketing officer. "That's why we're offering a deal in our mobile app to get a free half-size Harvest Chicken Salad with purchase. Crisp apples, brown sugar walnuts, bacon and apple cider vinaigrette have never tasted so delicious."

Built on a blended bed of refreshing, hand-chopped romaine, crisp iceberg and spring mix lettuce, this is one pile of leaves you won't mind tackling. Wendy's Harvest Chicken Salad touts brown sugar walnuts, green and red apples, feta cheese, Applewood smoked bacon, a savory Apple Cider Vinaigrette by Marzetti Simply Dressed, and is topped with a warm, freshly grilled all-white meat chicken breast. This is truly a salad everyone can cozy up to this fall by enjoying a full-size, fully dressed entrée, which includes all toppings and two packets of dressing, for only 570 calories. The half-size entrée is 320 calories and includes all toppings and one packet of dressing.
