We’ve been having a lot of salads lately.
A Chef’s Salad is my staple lunch - lettuces, tiny tomatoes, cucumber slices, with some chopped meat, a little pepperoni, a hard-boiled egg, some grated cheese. Sometimes I add marinated mushrooms, maybe a few beet slices.
I normally use those bottled, low-carb, refrigerated dressings like Marie’s and Marzetti’s; but am trying to get away from the oils in them, and make my own from olive oil.
People who aren’t used to salad as a meal might be surprised as to how enjoyable and filling even a small Chef’s Salad can be.
