FAQs

What is in the 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.

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.

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.

Created in 1988 by Outback founder Tim Gannon, it's our secret family recipe that never fails to delight. Now That's An Onion!

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.

In a tossed salad, you may taste two or even several ingredients at a time, but rarely are all present in each mouthful, and the proportion of flavors varies widely from bite to bite. But a well-made chopped salad presents you with a harmonious, balanced combination of sweet, salty, sour, and bitter flavors every time.

The name "chopped salad" refers to the fact most items in the salad are chopped into similar bite-size pieces for incorporating lots of ingredient textures and flavors in one bite.

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

The salad chopper does have the advantage of acting as a simultaneous mixer and fine-dicer. Once I'd prepped everything, I piled each salad's ingredients on the cutting board and went ham with a mezzaluna chopper, using it to simultaneously chop and toss the ingredients together.
