Cheesecake Factory Beet and Avocado Salad FAQs
01 Is Cheesecake Factory Beet and Avocado Salad vegan? ▼
No, Cheesecake Factory Beet and Avocado Salad is not vegan as served because the honey-yogurt sauce contains dairy (Greek yogurt and ricotta cheese) and the recipe uses bee honey in three places: the sauce, a 1-teaspoon finishing honey drizzle, and the honey-glazed red beets. Omitting the honey-yogurt sauce makes the salad 100% dairy-free, while strict vegans must also request no honey drizzle and unglazed beets.
02 Is Cheesecake Factory Beet and Avocado Salad gluten-free? ▼
Yes, Cheesecake Factory Beet and Avocado Salad is marked Gluten Free Upon Request (**) on the restaurant menu. None of its ingredients—glazed beets, crispy quinoa, avocado, orange segments, arugula, radish, Greek yogurt, ricotta cheese, honey, and olive oil—contain wheat or gluten, though guests with celiac disease should notify their server so the kitchen prevents cross-contact.
03 Does Cheesecake Factory Beet and Avocado Salad contain goat cheese or walnuts? ▼
No, Cheesecake Factory Beet and Avocado Salad does not contain goat cheese, walnuts, or balsamic vinaigrette. The kitchen spreads a whipped Greek yogurt and ricotta cheese sauce across the plate and tops the arugula with 2 teaspoons of crispy puffed quinoa for nut-free crunch.
04 Does Cheesecake Factory Beet and Avocado Salad come with protein or can you add chicken? ▼
No, the salad does not include meat, poultry, or fish by default. Guests can add Cheesecake Factory salad proteins including Grilled Shrimp (+90 cal, +$8.50), Chargrilled Steak (+200 cal, +$9.95), Grilled Chicken (+220 cal, +$6.95), or Grilled Salmon (+220 cal, +$8.95).
05 Is Cheesecake Factory Beet and Avocado Salad on the Happy Hour menu for $9.95? ▼

06 Where is Beet and Avocado Salad located on the Cheesecake Factory menu? ▼

Because it is a composed starter (~9.5 oz total) rather than a 1,000-calorie entrée salad bowl, diners ordering it as a main meal frequently add grilled chicken or shrimp.
07 How does Beet and Avocado Salad compare to Little House Salad on the Small Plates menu? ▼
