Want to make salads in Grow a Garden and earn rewards fast? Here’s a simple guide to making salads, from gathering ingredients to serving them to Chris P. Bacon.
What Is Salad in Grow a Garden?
In Grow a Garden, a Salad is a cooked food item you can make in the Cooking Pot during the Chris P. Bacon cooking event. You use crops you’ve grown, mix them together, cook them, and then give the finished salad to Chris P. Bacon for rewards like pets, tools, seed packs, and exclusive gear.
Salads also come in different rarity levels, from Common to Prismatic, depending on the ingredients you use.
Step‑By‑Step: Make Your First Salad
1. Grow and Harvest Ingredients
Plant crops like Tomatoes, Carrots, Corn, Bamboo, and Bone Blossoms in your garden until they’re ready to pick. Tomatoes are especially useful since they’re used in most salads.
2. Go to the Cooking Pot
Walk up to the Cooking Pot located near the event hub where Chris P. Bacon hangs out. That’s where you’ll make your salads.
3. Add Ingredients
Hold an ingredient and press the interact button to add it to the pot. Add all required ingredients for the salad recipe you want to make.
4. Press Cook
