Had my EAS shake for breakfast, now pondering a salad and cottage cheese for lunch. Sounds tasty to me! Have you guys had your salad yet today?

When it gets hot out I lose interest in eating. So far I've had an EAS shake and some greek yogurt. Maybe a cool salad might work? Have you guys had a salad yet today?

Oh yes! During the summer I love salads with berries in them. Marzetti's makes a great creamy version of a balsamic vinaigrette that goes great on berry salads. A little goes a long way.

Chelle -
If I do have a "challenge" with salads it's that I adore lots of dressing. So I tend to douse it. I'm at my ideal weight so it's not that it matters in that sense, but generally I imagine it's not very healthy. So I need to gently wean myself off of loads of dressing.

Enjoying a large salad with Italian dressing and cottage cheese, along with ice water. It helps to beat the heat. How about you? Have you had your salad today?

Yes! I eat many in a week! At my place of work we have an extensive tossed salad bar situated in downtown Brooklyn right by the NY Superior court house and a ton of exec. buildings. Salads are the rage around here!! Three of us toss salads constantly for a solid 2 1/2 hours.
There are the health conscious salad eaters and then there are the ones who have no idea what they want and add almost $8 of extra add-ins to there tub! Most go for the vinegar and oil or a vinaigrette, but others totally destroy their salad by adding almost a half a cup of creamy salad dressing to it.. Ah!
But the great thing is that the salad bars and the like that are springing up around the country are enticing people to eat more raw foods in a healthy way. That's a good thing!

Allyson - Don't think of it as destroying it - at least people are eating salads. For example I have ranch on my salads. I'm at my ideal weight and ranch is what I like to eat on them. So for me it's a perfect match. I eat a salad every single day, and I love them. It wouldn't be worth it for me to put a dressing on that I hated, dislike the experience, and become unhealthily thin as a result .

Tonight I have spring greens and romaine. I added Muffalata Olive Salad, a drizzle of light Italian, a dollop of ranch, a bit of blue cheese, and 1/2 ounce (2 paper thin slices) of mortadella and coppa. It's a yummy salad.

Chelle, Marzetti used to make a light raspberry vinaigrette. It was lovely and perfect on my salads. This dressing was an amazing balance of taste and low calories. Unfortunately, they discontinued it. I still long for it.

Connie, I LOVED that dressing.
My favorite dressing by them was a honey-balsamic vinaigrette, but they discontinued that, too.
What's with them getting rid of all the good ones?!?
Another good one I've found is a creamy lemon dressing that you can get at Sweet Tomatoes restaurant. They'll sell it to you by weight if you ask them for it.
