Texas salad
This salad was inspired by things we love: chicken, mielies, tomatoes, feta and olives. In hindsight, we wonder why we called it the Texas Salad. There is nothing Texan about a Greek salad with mielies. Despite this, it’s one of our best-selling salads and has been on the Classic menu from the start.
