    My favorite (and I could eat it all 3 meals, and only this) Is SO simple. Romaine Hearts lettuce, Feta Cheese crumbles, croutons, and Wish Bone Ranch Spritzer. That is it. I eat dinner plates of it. Of course you can throw on whatever veggie you want. I want to live on it....LOL

    I am a big fan of the following:

    Mixed greens
    Red onions (sliced very thin)
    Cherry tomatoes
    Dried cherries or cranberries
    Honey roasted pecans
    Blue cheese grumbles

    YUM! Sometimes I add chicken and avacado :heart:

    Its been a long time since I've had it but I came to taste a really good salad in Burger king in Puerto Rico. Too
    bad they dont serve it over here. It had greens, grilled chicken, tomato, tropical ripe bananas(guineo maduro) (fried or baked), bacon pieces, pink beans and your choice of dressing. Its a sweet and salty salad.

    The best salad I ever had lettuce, spinach, a sprinkle of cheese, one slice of bacon, bay shrimp, crab (lobster would be better), a small chicken strip, half a boiled egg, tomato, and avacado! Ranch dressing on top. I think it came to just over 600 cals and kept me full for about 8 hours.

    I've been doing something a little different lately. A can of black beans, a can of corn ( no salt) a teaspoon of cumin, couple drops of hot
    sauce and a squirt of lemon juice. It's a great lunch and I normally get 3 cups of it, which I split over a couple days. It's a great side too for fish tacos.

    Corn and blueberry salad!

    You need:

    1 corn on the cob
    1 cup of blueberries
    1/2 cup of cilantro
    1/2 cup of red onion
    1 jalapeno
    1 TBS of honey
    1 lime

    Boil the corn on the cob, let cool and cut the kernels off. Chop up and mix all ingredients together, drizzle the honey over it, squeeze the juice of the whole lime in, stir and let cool for at least a half hour. I like this salad all by itself, but it goes well with most dishes.

    Romaine lettuce, arugula, sliced tomato, sliced red onion, sliced roasted red peppers, goat cheese, Ken's fat free raspberry pecan dressing and whatever protein I have on hand...salmon, chicken breast, or even hard boiled egg whites. YUM!! Sometimes I change it up and use yogurt ranch dressing and a sprinkling of bacos instead of the raspberry.

    Spinach with two fried eggs, bacon bits, blue cheese crumbles, green onions, cucumbers, and tomatoes with balsamic and sriracha. The balsamic, sriracha, and egg yolks mix together to make a dressing.

    Cubed long english cucumber, grape tomatoes sliced in half, greek seasoning and either feta or goat cheese crumbled no dressing, the juice from the tomatoes mixed with the seasoning is like a dressing.

    Spinach and strawberries with blue cheese and pecans and honey poppyseed dressing. I usually have this at least once a week at a local restaurant with half an egg salad sandwich on wheat bread. Yummy indulgence.

    LOts of great ones on here. One that I really like is lettuce, red onion, green apple, soy nuts, feta, cucumber. Toss with Renee's Vinegrette - the pear and blue cheese. Add tons of black pepper. MMMMmmmmm - good with chicken tossed in too. So good!

    Grilled Chicken with strawberries and blueberries and Bolthouse Farm Dressing (Raspberry Merlot).

    Tuna/Chicken with mangoes/oranges/dried cranberries and Bolthouse Farm Mango Vinagairette.

    I do both of these on spinach because I like it better but you can do whatever.

    My family also likes Taco Salads and you can make your own shell or eat it without one. Basically you do fat free refried beans or black beans (reduced sodium preferred) on a bed of lettuce. Mix in onions and chopped peppers. Add Extra Hot Salsa and Jalepenos if you like. Also can top with sour cream (reduced fat or fat free) or greek yogurt (unflavored, fat free).
