There is nothing like a huge salad overflowing with super filling and nutritious ingredients.  I get so excited when I see a delicious-looking salad or “build your own” option on the menu.  Trust me, green foods don’t have to be boring! 

My favorite salad toppings: warm pesto chicken, chopped walnuts, chickpeas, artichokes, sundried tomatoes (and any other veggie you can think of—cucumbers, peppers, carrots, etc.) in a light balsamic vinaigrette.  Definitely not boring ;)

 

 

 

 

What are your favorite salad toppings?

 

 

 

 

 

Calling all readers in the NYC area!:  I’m organizing a blogger/reader lunch/dinner (yoga?) for next weekend in the city and would love for you to join !  If you’re interested, send me an e-mail: kristen@simplysavor.com !

 

Have a great Thursday everyone…one day closer to the weekend :)

    I love this series! This one is very true for me too. I love putting all sorts of leftovers on a salad anything from warmed up meats to pasta or rice. I usually like to have a hot and cold component too, keeps my mouth happy. :)

    Salad bars are the best! Especially the one at Whole Foods! It’s too bad I can’t spend $20 on a salad every day :) I love putting cottage cheese, roasted vegetables, edamame, dried cranberries and grapes on my salad. The crazier the combo, the better!

    Hmm… I would say feta cheese, avocados, cranberries…not all at the same time, of course!

    Love that you’re organizing a blogger get-together in NYC! Wish I could join…love the idea, and love that city!
