Nothing like a fresh salad! This night after the kids went to bed, We decided to have a yummy salad for a snack. I buy a bag of 3 romaine lettuce (approx $2-4) each week.
Rinse and drain on a kitchen or paper towel. Cutting it into bite size pieces for the week!
I like to place it into Tupperware container with a paper towel to keep it fresh! It usually stays fresh for 5-7 days. Much longer than the already bagged salad.
This night, I peeled fresh carrots (only other veggie in my fridge) and cut them with my fun crinkle cutter ad topped with some feta cheese for protein.
I typically like a balsamic vinaigrette dressing. I am researching ways to make and keep my own dressing on hand. To keep the calories low, I suggest that the dressing be on the side and dip the fork into it and then get a bite of salad. This salad was less that 15 grams of carbohydrates and some protein from the cheese.
