    Slivered almonds, red peppers, kalamata olives, apples. What's wrong with croutons and nuts? Use those.
    I know you know your nuts. Wait. . .what?!? Kale chips, sesame sticks, croutons wrapped in bacon with cashews. . . .

    Fried onions--maybe not the healthiest option, but you wouldn't need to use a big portion and they definitely add great crunch and flavor.

    and then I use a MASSIVE amount of lettuce. I'm talking mixing-bowl territory. It's impossible to feel hungry after that much chewing!

    This 100%. We actually prewash our lettuce and put them in very large food containers for the week. Om nom nom!

    Lettuce. The white parts of iceberg lettuce are really crunchy. Some raw fruits and veggies are crunchy, too. :)

    Haven't seen anyone mention pickled cucumbers, gerkins or silverskin onions so good in salads and pretty low cal. Also love feta, crispy bacon bits, pumpkin seeds, dessicated unsweetened coconut (soo good with grated carrot), almonds, the options are endless.

    Got to go make me a salad for my lunch now mmmmm
