Respect Hospitality Group owner Forgione has crafted the Chopped Mezze salad with a focus on Mediterranean flavours. The dish features Kalamata olives and a homemade dressing with dried oregano.
Forgione said: “This partnership was born out of a mutual appreciation for crafting quality dishes that elevate the culinary experience.
“The Greek Salad is a timeless classic that celebrates the vibrant flavours of the Mediterranean, and I’m excited to bring Just Salad customers my own unique twist on this beloved dish while showcasing the freshest produce and essence of the season.”

Just Salad’s spring menu introduces three new recipes that celebrate seasonal produce.
The brand has partnered with Fable Food, an Australian company specialising in plant-based mushroom products.
The new BBQ Shroom Bowl will feature Fable BBQ Shiitake mushrooms, Sesame Edamame Mix and Miso Kale Slaw, among other spring-focused ingredients.
Just Salad also recently launched a range of Sesame Street characters-themed reusable bowls for adults.
The initiative is an expansion of the existing partnership with Sesame Workshop, the non-profit behind Sesame Street, and builds on the success of Just Salad’s kids’ menu.
