FAQs

What is in Outback Steakhouse salad? ›

Seared center-cut sirloin, mixed greens, Aussie Crunch, tomatoes, red onions, green onions, cinnamon pecans, Blue Cheese crumbles and our Danish Blue Cheese vinaigrette.

Chopped style mixed greens with shredded carrots, red cabbage, green onions, cinnamon pecans and Aussie Crunch all tossed with Blue Cheese vinaigrette and topped with Blue Cheese crumbles.

Now, before you carnivores turn up your noses, hear me out. This isn't just any old side dish; it's a medley of crisp greens, crunchy croutons, Cheddar & Jack cheeses, cucumber, slivered red onions, and snappy cucumber. And a tangy tomato dressing that'll have your taste buds doing the waltz.

Lettuce, olives, tomatoes, cucumber, cheese (usually parmesan or mozzarella balls), pepperoncini, onions, and if you like meat, throw in some chopped salami. What does it mean to ask for a salad chopped? It simply means that all the ingredients, including the lettuce, are chopped up small.

Our Light Balsamic Vinaigrette and Tangy Tomato Dressing are the choices you want to go for in making a lower calorie pick. If you just can't say no to our Ranch or Caesar creamy dressings, though, ask your waiter to put it on the side - so you can control just how much is added.

Fresh mixed greens, chopped hard-boiled eggs, tomatoes, bacon, Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheese and croutons. Served with your choice of dressing.

Easy House Salad Recipe

The type of basic salad recipe that uses common ingredients that likely already have on hand in your produce crisper drawer. Crisp Romaine lettuce, juicy tomatoes, carrots, cucumbers, shredded Parmesan, and crunchy croutons are a must.

The main differences lie in the type of lettuce used, key components, and dressing. House salads offer a broader range of ingredients and dressings, while Caesar salads have specific components like romaine lettuce, parmesan cheese, and a distinct Caesar dressing.

With all components chopped small, each bite contains the lettuce, vegetables, cheese, protein etc. simultaneously. Your taste buds get to enjoy all the ingredients' flavors at once. Chewing an intact leaf mainly provides one taste.

What is the difference between a regular salad and a chopped salad? ›

A chopped salad is a salad that has all of its ingredients chopped into small pieces. This makes it easier to eat and also allows the flavors of the ingredients to mix together more evenly.

Bound salad: ingredients such as meat, poultry, fish, egg, or starch such as potato, pasta, or rice and bound with mayo. Vegetable salad: cooked and/or raw vegetables (coleslaw); can be bound with mayo or mixed with vinegar/oil dressing.

In the Outback Steakhouse recipe they claim to have an "Aussie crunch" which can be achieved by cooking and frying bits of Angel Hair pasta; which I did, but I don't think it really made a difference to the taste so you can leave out that step if you'd like.
