HEB Salad Bar Health Choice Options

The value you get for your salad bar dollar depends on which HEB you go to.  The HEB at Bunker Hill charges $6.99 a lb for the salad bar which is outrageous. the HEB in Pearland charges $4.99 lb, and the HEB at Buffalo Speedway charges $3.99 lb which is a great bargain.
As with most salad bars, you can get way way way more calories than you, especially from fatty salad dressings and cheeses.
Here are some some tips for cutting down on some of those calories.
1. Opt for the smaller container
2. Add your ingredients in the following order

  • Spinach
  • Mixed Salad
  • Cumbers
  • Carrots
  • Tomatoes
  • Diced chicken breast
  • Olives if you so desire
  • raisins / dried cranberries
  • nuts
  • vinegar
  • finally put your salad dressing in a togo container
Location:
Various throughout Texas.
Ones I have at include Buffalo Speedway, Bunker Hill, and Pearland. (Note there is no salad bar the HEB at Woodridge )
