Chopt‘s ongoing “Destination Salads” initiative is kicking off the warmer months with fresh flavors inspired by sunny California. Launching April 10 and available until late June, Chopt is introducing its new Destination California collection, which will include new California-inspired menu items like the Baja Shrimp Wrap and Chinese Chicken Bowl, along with the return of fan favorite, the Spicy Sonoma Caesar Salad.

The new Destination California menu is synonymous with fresh produce and a food culture filled with distinct creative flavors and vibrant colors.

The Baja Shrimp Wrap, Chopt’s first Destination wrap, is inspired by the taco stands in Southern California that blend authentic Mexican flavors into their own local cuisine. It is comprised of Baja Shrimp that is tossed with a blend of chile, garlic, cumin and Mexican oregano and married with a rich, creamy Spicy Baja Sauce, that is made with crema, a hint of jalapeno and herbs, and fresh lime juice for a hint of acidity.

The Chinese Chicken Bowl is made with Blistered Green Beans, that are fried and tossed with with Szechuan peppercorns, dried chiles and even ground pork for a rich, smoky, spicy flavor; Crispy Wontons, which provide the perfect crunch and are a crispy, salty and highly craveable staple; and a light, flavorful Sesame Ginger Dressing which is balanced with fresh citrus juice, rice vinegar, agave for sweetness and fresh garlic and shallot for savoriness.

The inspiration starts up north with the fan-favorite and most requested non-regular menu salad, the Spicy Sonoma Caesar. The salad, which launches a week early for online customers, features creamy avocado; spicy pickled cherry peppers; chipotle chicken; Sonoma Creamery’s Parmesan Quinoa Crisps, which are salty, savory and made from real Sonoma Parmesan and organic ancient grains; and Pickled Fresh Radishes that lend some crunch, color, and a pop of acidity to Destination California.
