American bakery-café fast-casual restaurant chain Panera Bread has expanded its summer 2024 menu with the introduction of new sandwich options and avocado toasts.
The new offerings include the Spicy Chicken Fiesta and Kickin’ Grilled Cheese sandwiches, along with two new Avocado Toast varieties.
Starting at $11.59, the Spicy Chicken Fiesta Sandwich features Panera’s salsa verde spread, grilled chicken, white cheddar cheese, sweet peppers, cilantro [coriander] and roasted corn, all served on artisan ciabatta.
The Kickin’ Grilled Cheese sandwich, priced at $7.49, combines the same salsa verde spread with American and White Cheddar cheeses on classic white miche bread.
The brand’s new Avocado Toasts, starting at $3.49, are inspired by Panera’s Food Hackathon.
These vegetarian-friendly breakfast options are served on country rustic sourdough bread.
