I am trying something new. I read health books regularly and over and over they say, "eat your greens." I try and actually enjoy them, but so many days go by where I don't have anything leafy at all. Soooo, I'm going to blog about salads, with pictures, to help keep me accountable.
I was going to try to make 365 different salads for a year and then I thought I might fizzle out on that. I thought maybe I would try to make salads except when I went out to eat, but there are 3 meals in a day, so that's a cop out. Then I started stressing about keeping up with it and I hadn't even started, so I am going to try my best, without any pressure, to eat salad every day, any kind of salad as long as it's got leafy green in there somewhere. And document it. Here.
November 23 was the first day of my "Eat Salads Everyday Plan". It included Romaine lettuce, spinach, red leaf lettuce, strawberries, mandarin oranges, pecans and feta cheese. I used a Balsamic Vinegar Dressing to top it off.
Day 2 I had Romaine lettuce, spinach, tomatoes and cucumber with a California Honey French dressing.
Day 3 rolled around with Romaine lettuce, spinach, red leaf lettuce, hard boiled egg, tomatoes, cucumbers, shredded carrots and grilled free range organic chicken breast with a Honey Mustard Dressing.
I am hoping my photography skills improve because these tasted a lot better than they look here. lol See you soon!
