How to Spice Up The Traditional IHOP Menu

What if I were to tell you there was a secret IHOP Menu? You'd probably call me crazy, because you are right, there isn't one. At least not yet. Something I am crossing my fingers for. Still, after working here for almost 4 years, you get pretty tired of eating the same food every shift. That's why we have come up with some fun ways to spice up the traditional menu. 

Here are some different ways my coworkers and I have spiced up the menu...

Looking for Something Healthy? 

Loaded Fries

Though this may seem like an unhealthy choice, hear me out. Loaded fries loaded with Lettuce, Tomato, Onions, and Spinach. Need some protein? Add Grilled Chicken or some Turkey Bacon. This way, you get your salty, savory fries with a healthy addition to it. Your stomach will be pleased, and so will your overall health. 

Grilled Chicken Dinner

A steaming, hot Grilled Chicken breast served with Mashed Potatoes, Broccoli, Spinach, or some Green Beans. It's the perfect combination of savory, salty, and healthy. Personally, it's one of my favorite dinners. My all-time favorite is the Salmon Dinner, but even that gets tiring sometimes, so every so often I will ask the cooks to whip this up for me. I recommend that more people order this. If your IHOP sells rice, this will go perfectly with it as well. 

Something Savory? 

Breakfast Burrito

The Breakfast Burrito, as it is, is perfect for those who love breakfast wraps. However, you can still make it better by adding a couple extra ingredients. Try adding Lettuce, Spinach, or Tomato for some vegetables. Adding Grilled or Crispy Chicken grants for some much-needed protein and gives it that salty, crunchy touch. 

Grilled BLT

We all love a good BLT. The crunch from the crispy bacon mixed with the lettuce and a good juicy tomato makes for the perfect anytime sandwich. But did you ever think about putting cheese in it? I didn't originally until a customer ordered it today. I ordered the same thing, and I don't think I'll ever be able to have the two apart again. 

Waffle Sandwich

You've had waffles. You've had eggs, bacon, and tomatoes. What about putting them all together? It's not completely out there since there are Monte Cristo Sandwiches. This sandwich is not the same, of course, but don't they always say you need to try new things? This just puts a bold, delicious, and new twist on it. Though it may seem weird and out there, it's worth getting. And besides, this is not the weirdest thing someone has ordered. Trust me. 

Of course, these are just a few of the many things you can do to spice up the menu, so feel free to give us some recommendations in the comments. All recommendations are welcome. No matter how weird or outlandish. If it's special to you, it's special to us.
