Dish of the Day: Heart Healthy Salads from Tossed

Behind the Burner: Dish of the Day: Heart Healthy Salads from Tossed

This February, the only heart you should be concerned about is your own! The month of February is being offered as a tribute and renamed American Heart Month. During these 28 (not 29) days of the month, we are taking the time to recognize the havoc that heart disease wreaks on our society and finding a way to fight back.

The best way we know how to fight back is to make healthy choices when it comes to food. Tossed, a garden salad, wrap, and sandwich franchise (located on Park Avenue in NYC) is helping Americans with their struggle against heart disease by offering a healthy alternative to a greasy burger at lunch. With over 50 fresh choices of veggies, fruits, and gourmet dressing, it's easy to do your heart a favor without disappointing your taste buds. Tossed is a great place to use your creative side and get heart healthy!

Tip: Start Spring early with this healthy salad recommendation from Tossed: baby spinach, sliced fresh strawberries, chopped bacon, broccoli, sugar snap peas, and red onion tossed in a strawberry vinaigrette.
