STRATEGIC PARTNERS
May 4, 2011
Culminating an effort that took more than two years to perfect, Panera Bread is introducing three new sirloin steak menu items. The new additions feature choice-grade cuts of sirloin steak and include a Steak & White Cheddar Panini, a Steak & Egg Breakfast Sandwich and a Steak & Blue Cheese Chopped Salad.
The Steak & White Cheddar Panini is the newest addition to Panera's panini line up, uniting the flavor pairing of steak, onions and cheese. The sandwich combines tender strips of sirloin steak layered with caramelized onions, Vermont white cheddar cheese and creamy horseradish sauce, and is served grilled on a freshly baked French baguette.
The new Steak & Egg Breakfast Sandwich also is the latest breakfast sandwich on Panera's morning menu. The sandwich joins tender strips of sirloin steak, Vermont white cheddar cheese, and an all-natural egg.
Expanding its chopped salad offerings, Panera's new Steak & Blue Cheese Salad is made with fresh chopped romaine lettuce, crunchy onion strips, tomatoes and generous chunks of sharp Gorgonzola, all tossed with blue cheese vinaigrette. The fourth addition to Panera's chopped salad line-up, this new salad is topped with strips of tender sirloin steak and drizzled with a cabernet reduction.
