salad salad salad salad salad salad salad salad salad

I'm trying to find ways to boost my appetite for salad - which I find boring beyond compare. Salas is also RIDICULOUSLY expensive! Really? 4 dollars for a package of salad that isn't iceberg lettuce and cabbage?

SO I've been buying greens and making my own - which often leads to ALOT of salad that I can never seem to eat fast enough before it goes bad because it is BORING.
I've added cilantro and other herbs, that helps, but seriously.....

suggestions?

  1. I eat a lot of salad. About half a normal size bag w/ lunch or dinner. I switch between spinach and romaine mostly. I add sliced mushrooms, baby carrots, grape/cherry tomato, olives, peppers. For me, the trick is buying stuff that is easy to add with little to no prep work.

    I have had good luck with Old Cape Cod dressings, low cal, but good taste so you dont feel guilty adding the 2 tbsp. There is a new mango vinegarette one that is very good.

    Salad never gets boring for me because it is secondary. I will either have soup or a sandwich as my mainstay, but always have a salad so I know I will be filled up.
