Carrollton-based TGI Friday’s hyping new sandwiches with introductory low price

T.G.I. Friday's restaurants announced the launch of nine new sandwiches and salads at nearly 600 restaurants in the U.S. Friday's also announced that all sandwiches and salads, sixteen items in total including the nine new menu items, all full portions, will be offered at an introductory price of $5 beginning today through May 31. (After that, they'll return to regular prices, which range from $7.29 to $11.39.)

The new full portion sandwiches and salads include:

- Meatball Sandwich: a fresh Ciabatta roll stuffed with four large meatballs, zesty marinara and topped with mixed cheese.

Not unhealthy if you can finagle certain requests

  • BBQ Chicken Chopped Salad: Serve without Jack(TM) Championship BBQ sauce and Cajun onion straws.

  • Santa Fe Chopped Salad: Hold the tortilla strips tossed in a Chipotle Ranch dressing, cheese and - God knows why - more tortilla strips, substitute lemon juice for dressing

  • Shanghai Salad:Hold them crispy noodles and - sniff - Pork Pot Stickers.

  • Mediterranean Salad with Chicken: substitute virgin olive oil for house dressing

  • Strawberry Fields Salad: Hold the Parmesan

  • Meatball Sandwich: I was almost ready to concede defeat, until I thought - hold the Ciabatta roll and substitute the mixed cheese with a sprinkling of Parmesan

  • Thai Chicken Wrap: Hold the honey lime dressing and peanut sauce, replace with lime juice

  • BBQ Chicken Wrap: Almost another dealbreaker but you can make it less noxious by nixing the Cajun onion straws, ranch dressing and Jack Daniel's(R) mayo and that side of BBQ sauce. Try a hot sauce like Tabasco as a condiment, instead.

  • Jack Daniel's(R) Chicken Sandwich: Just order this without the bun, bacon, mixed cheese, frizzled onions (substitute fresh uncooked red onions)and Jack Daniel's(R) mayonnaise (substitute a spicy hot mustard or hot sauce), or go real light on the mayo, just enough to complement flavor of chicken, not smother the bird.
