With so many wonderful combinations of soups, salads, pastas and sandwiches at Panera Bread^®, sometimes it can be hard to decide exactly what goes best with what. But don’t worry — with the variety of our menu, it’s a good bet that any pairing you choose will be delightful.

Still need some inspiration? Several of our chefs and bakers, who have their favorites just like you do, are happy to share a few You Pick Two pairings with you.

Since summer’s a wonderful time to indulge in the smooth, creamy flavor of avocado, we’re featuring this incredible fruit as the star of the Chopped Chicken Cobb with Avocado Salad. Paired with our Roasted Turkey and Avocado BLT, it creates a cool and refreshing way to savor these warm summer days.

One of our most popular seasonal favorites is the Strawberry Poppyseed & Chicken Salad. In fact, we only offer it this time of year because now is when its fruity ingredients are at their peak. An excellent way to balance this crisp and sweet sensation is with a cup of Lemon Chicken Orzo Soup for a light, airy way to experience the freshness that makes summertime so special.
 
For a hearty and more robust You Pick Two, you can’t do much better than a signature Roasted Turkey Artichoke panini served alongside a creamy helping of Mac & Cheese in all its tangy, cheddar-filled, comfort-food glory. Just because it’s warm outside doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy something hot and satisfying!

Finally, there’s one pairing that keeps finding its way into our hearts, no matter the season. Try combining the savory Bacon Turkey Bravo^®, served on Tomato Basil bread, with the select fresh vegetables and traditional egg noodles in our Low-Fat All-Natural Chicken Noodle Soup. Both are made with the finest ingredients to make summer (and the rest of the year) seem even better.

We could go on and on, but we hope you’ll be tempted to keep visiting Panera Bread until you find your own perfect pairing! And we also hope you’re enjoying your summer.
