Sometimes we make having a salad sound so blah. It doesn't have to be and a lot of times can be way more fulfilling than those sandwhiches and chips we all love. If you take your lunch to work, try separating out your ingrediants a little bit so it will taste fresh when you go to make it!
Time: 10 minutes
Variations: Unlimited!
1 cup spring mix or 50/50 - get some spinach in that body!
a couple sun dried tomatoes
about 5 fresh mushrooms chopped
about 5 grape tomatoes cut in 1/2
3 pieces of deli chicken/turkey meat (rolled up)
1 small slice of cheese (like cheddar or mozzarella or monteray jack)
5 small pretzels chopped up (don't worry, they add up to like 30 cal total and gives your salad a good crunch without the need for nuts or croutons)
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
pepper
Throw all together except for cheese and meat, dash of pepper, oil/vinegar, toss well. Lay cheese and meat on top for a pretty presentation (because my french book says that food should be eye pleasing and you will enjoy it more and fill fuller sooner. It works I did it - isn't this weight loss stuff a mental thing anyway?)
Enjoy!
