Gotta Love Salad

Members Were Sparked

I make a huge base salad at the beginning of the week. I prep other add-ins as well. That way I can have salad everyday with dinner but never get bored with it because the add-ins make it diffferent.

When you just can't stop from eating ice cream.

If you're like me then ice cream is one of your biggest weaknesses. After a meal I crave something cold and sweet. I've found that frozen yogurt is a good alternative.... as in, take your Dannon and stick it in the freezer. It comes out rock hard but after about 30 seconds in the microwave it breaks up enough to get a spoon through it. Even better is GoGurt, if you have it, it's like eating a creamy otter pop. You can also make your own popcycles, all you need is a mold and some sticks!

Just Add Water!

Once in a while I have a taste for full fat dressing and I just can't bring myself to eat a whole serving and take the hit from the fat and the calories! So, I get half the serving size and add that same amount of water to it. I mix it up on a little saucer and pour it over my salad. My sister thinks it's gross, but a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do. If restaurants can do it and get away with it so can I!140

MORE INFORMATION:
When I run out of of my 2% milk I also do the same with my milk. I'll measure out a half cup of full fat milk and add in a half cup of water to make one full cup. =)9
