Panera Bread Spicy Steak Asiago Bagel Stack

High histamine

This bagel stack is high because the asiago bagel, aged cheeses, marinated steak, and salsa verde spread all run high.

Food here is usually assembled to order from components that were prepped earlier in the day, so it tends to be fresher than a drive-through and less fresh than cooking at home. Histamine builds up as protein foods sit, so how long the chicken or beef has been in the warmer matters as much as what is in the bowl. Treat the rating above as a starting point.

It is marinated steak with asiago and provolone on an asiago bagel, with arugula, cherry peppers, and a green chile spread.

  • Aged cheeses and asiago bagel — asiago and provolone are aged cheeses that run high, and the asiago-topped bagel carries that too, so the cheese alone sets the level.

  • Marinated steak and salsa verde spread — the marinated steak is high and the green chile salsa verde spread is high, with the zesty cherry peppers adding moderate on top.

The arugula and red onion are the mild parts of this stack.
