The new dishes include:
Garden Pesto Saute: Also referred to as “spring in a bowl,” this dish has fresh asparagus in a light, lemon Genovese pesto combined with red bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, pecans, feta, and spinach atop a new gluten-free fusilli noodle. A regular-sized portion includes 3 servings of vegetables, is packed with 15g of protein and has just 590 calories.
Springtime Flatbread: A crispy flatbread topped with fresh asparagus, mushrooms, melted Parmesan cheese and crispy bacon – perfect for sharing.
Asparagus Stack: A side of asparagus spears topped with feta cheese and bacon crumbles accompanied with a wedge of lemon.
The springtime dishes bring many firsts for Noodles & Company. The Garden Pesto Saute features a new gluten-free fusilli noodle. The Springtime Flatbread introduces a new way for groups to share a bite before their entree. And the Asparagus Stack is the brand’s first composed side dish.
“The fresh, light flavor and hearty texture of asparagus is perfect for these new spring dishes,” said Tessa Stamper , R.D., Director of Culinary. “Customization is the cornerstone of our menu so we encourage guests to add asparagus to and substitute our new gluten-free noodle to any dish.”
The Garden Pesto Saute is $8.50 for a regular-sized dish; the Springtime Flatbread appetizer and the Asparagus Stack are $2.99 each.
