January was going to be all about catching up on posts from December…but then life happened, and I got that weird cold/cough that lingers for what feels like months thing…and all productivity went out the window. So, by now you probably know that SweetGreen has opened up in the Prudential, right near the Sheraton entrance in the mall.

Sweetgreen serves up healthy, fully customizable salads and bowls with ingredients from a variety of local farms.

The menu lets you know just  how many calories are in your salad, and if you use their app, you can also see the caloric value of your customized salad. Speaking of apps, if you pay with Level Up you can get rewards!

I’m not usually one for salads, but sweetgreen is my exception – note that I also leave with a $25 salad because I get 800 add ins

In case you are not familiar, they have seasonal salads and salad suggestions, but you can go in and get your salad any way you want it.

Brussels sprouts are so in these days, do you love them or hate them?

My salad today? Avocobbo ( shredded kale + chopped romaine, tomatoes, raw corn, avocado, bacon, egg, roasted chicken) and I added cheddar cheese and balsamic dressing.

I was with a fun group of bloggers for this lunch – and as a treat, we got to take home these adorable succulents!

As an added bonus, BlackBird Doughnuts made these adorable mini donuts for the group! Check out my previous post about them here!

The Santorini – chopped romaine with citrus shrimp, feta, red grapes and chickpeas; topped with a cucumber basil yogurt dressing and a fresh lemon squeeze. Really nice flavoring, love the citrus shrimp and the red grapes. The salads run you $6-$13, but they are enormous. I like the salads so much that one day I went for lunch AND dinner!

The District Cobb – shredded kale + chopped romaine with roasted chicken, goat cheese, hard boiled egg, bacon, raw corn, avocado and grape tomatoes; topped with an agave dijon vinaigrette. I get mine with balsamic instead of dijon – this is by far my favorite salad.

Wednesdays are usually my day for salads, with a stop at Mother Juice, a juice truck across the street, for the perfect lunch.
