Your friends want a pizza party, but you don’t want pizza because you’re the last person on Earth who has not given up on their New Year’s Resolution to eat better. Well, if your friends love you, they will order from Domino’s because the pizza chain is now selling salads.
They’re prepackaged from Ready Pac Foods, but at least they’re salads and not pizza.
There are three varieties available:
The Classic Garden is a basic salad with grape tomatoes, red onion, carrots, red cabbage, cheddar cheese, and brioche garlic croutons on romaine and iceberg lettuce. The salad, without dressing, has 200 calories 9 grams of fat, 4.5 grams of saturated fat, 20 milligrams of cholesterol, 220 milligrams of sodium, 17 grams of carbohydrates, 4 grams of fiber, 6 grams of sugar, and 8 grams of protein.
The Chicken Caesar Salad comes with roasted white meat chicken, Parmesan cheese, and brioche garlic croutons on blend of romaine and iceberg lettuce. A dressing-less serving has 210 calories, 7 grams of fat, 3.5 grams of saturated fat, 45 milligrams of cholesterol, 520 milligrams of sodium, 15 grams of carbohydrates, 2 grams of fiber, 3 grams of sugar, and 16 grams of protein.
The Chicken Apple Pecan Salad features roasted white meat chicken, diced red and green apples, dried cranberries, praline pecans, cheddar cheese, and a leafy spring mix. A serving without dressing has 190 calories, 4.5 grams of fat, 2.5 grams of saturated fat, 40 milligrams of cholesterol, 350 milligrams of sodium, 23 grams of carbohydrates, 4 grams of fiber, 14 grams of sugar, and 13 grams of protein.
Three salad dressing are available — Ranch, Caesar, and Balsamic.
Domino’s salads are available for $5.99 each when you pair them with any of Domino’s mix and match menu items, like medium two-topping pizzas, Specialty Chicken, eight-piece chicken, Stuffed Cheesy Breads, sandwiches, pastas, and the Marbled Cookie Brownie.

I work at Domino’s and whenever I stop working there the only thing on the menu I would ever go back to buy is the Chicken Apple Pecan salad (needs more cranberries and pecans, though).
The other two I don’t care for because iceberg lettuce is the worst (in general, not specifically the lettuce in these salads). I truly don’t understand how iceberg lettuce became a thing in the US; it’s basically just crunchy water.
Years ago Domino’s had salads. They didn’t have the Chicken Apple Pecan one but I remember them having a garden and Caesar variety. I want to say they had one other.. This of course was before they started offering pastas. Can’t remember if they had chicken back then.. but they used to have coupons for a pizza, salad and drink or breadsticks. Unless it was regional, but their garden salad was darn good too. Wasn’t huge, was just enough for 1 person, want to say it was like 3.99?
I work for Domino’s and get these at a 33% employee discount — I would probably not buy them at full price, as I can get similar things from Walmart for about half what Domino’s charges as full price ($5.99-$6.49).
I’ve tried all three of them and very much prefer the Chicken Apple Pecan one, with Caesar dressing, over both of the others. This isn’t to say the other two are bad — they’re just nearly as exciting to my palate as the delicious vegetal spring mix tastes and sweet fruit and nut flavors the CAP Salad offers.
The dressings are Ken’s and are all fairly decent, but the Caesar’s my favorite of the ones our store offers. We also have a balsamic vinaigrette (lower-fat/Calories) and a Ranch dressing. We don’t, for some unfathomable reason, offer the Italian dressing… what, really?!
Oops! I meant “they’re just NOT nearly as exciting” in my post above. Pardon!
I just had the Chicken apple pecan salad. Hardly worth the money. Very small amount of chicken and a TINY pack of pecans and cranberries. It didn’t taste very fresh at all. I’ll never order Dominos salad again.
I ordered the basic garden salad and was very disappointed. Not worth the money and being prepacked really added to the lackluster performance of the entire meal. Brown lettuce is not good in any salad.
I just had the chicken apple pecan salad – it wasn’t bad. I don’t think it was really worth $6 but I got it as part of a special so felt healthier than getting two pizzas…
