My dear friend Helle is back in Denver for a two month visit! She was my best friend's Au Pair a year ago and she's come back from Denmark for a vacation. I'm so happy she's back and can't wait to hang out with her the rest of the summer!
We went out to dinner last night and sitting with my two beautiful friends, I looked at my menu a little more closely. They are both super healthy and active so I decided to forgo my usual Grown Up Mac and Cheese (too many carbs man!) and instead decided to order a salad.
I never, ever order salad.
I ordered the half Santa Fe Chicken Salad (lettuce, black beans, corn, avocado, creamy spicy dressing) and I loved it! I didn't know that salad could taste this good and now I want more. Granted....the dressing was probably high in calories but there were healthy things in there and I didn't feel like crap after I ate.
BONUS!!
Do you ever order salad when you go out to eat?

Being Celiac I always end up with a salad. LOL
ReplyDeleteYou can get a low carb burger at most places (wrapped in lettuce), salad, grilled steak and vegetables, etc.
I'm a vegetarian, so I always end up with a Salad, and even though its creamy dressing an all I still love it!
