    I eat taco salad alot for lunch at work. On Sunday I brown ground turkey & add taco seasonings. Then each monring I take some taco meat, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, shredded carrots, mushrooms, and whatever else I have on had to make a salad. For a dressing I use fat free sour cream (or fat free greek yogurt) and salsa which has alot less calories than regular dressing. If i want to make it spicy I will mix hot sauce with the sour cream.

    It's really filling and only 330 calories! :smile:

    I love taco salad, but you really need to watch the sodium. Between the taco seasoning, the salsa and the hot sauce, the sodium can be outrageous. You could lower it by getting low-sodium taco seasoning and salsa and leaving out the hot sauce. Very yummy, though.

    Almost every weekday I eat a romaine mix with a tiny bit of cheddar cheese shreds, hot peppers, and light Asian sesame dressing (Kraft). I also alternate between adding beets, a hard boiled egg, lunch meat, or a boiled chicken breast. (beets and ONE of those sources of protein)

    Two words: Broccoli Slaw

    I see this at the store all the time and wondered about it. Does it have mayo in it, though?

    Nah, I buy it in the bag, raw, without dressing and sprinkle some of it on my salad. It is the Bees Knees :)


    Ya, i love this stuff. i add it to all kinds of things........added it to beef/broccoli stir fry last week. i also use it on salads.

    Boiled Egg. A salad with some egg is great after a workout. Get some protein without a lot of calories. :) I'm also a fan of dried cranberries and walnuts.

    The Sweet Onion sauce at Subway is a great salad dressing. Low cal and delicious! :)

    loving all these ideas!

    Today's salad is pretty basic with green leaf lettuce, carrots, tomatoes, and some leftover shredded buffalo chicken that was cooked in the crock pot. Add a little light ranch and a side of almonds and I'm good to go :)

    Adding some leftover protein from the previous night's dinner makes a huge difference for my salads. Chicken, salmon, or a little lean steak mixed with a bunch of veggies helps keep me more satisfied and makes the salad so yummy
