As I was making this salad, I got to thinking about how my whole life, I’ve heard, read or been told that when attempting to lose weight, one had better be extra careful when selecting salads as a meal option.
Indeed, more often than not, these tend to be loaded with crazy amounts of dressings or vinaigrette, which will turn a seemingly light and healthy meal into a fatty cocktail and a veritable deluge of calories.
So for years, I bought right into this concept and as a result, would always eat my salads either with light dressing (an abomination that shouldn’t even exist) or with no dressing at all (not a very palatable option, if you ask me).
I’m soooo happy that I know better now.
In fact, a salad that’s high in HEALTHY fats, that contains a good amount of protein and that’s loaded with leafy greens and other highly fibrous vegetables, such as this Smoked Ham and Hard-Boiled Egg Salad, might very well be what one should be looking for in a good, healthy “weight loss” meal! continue reading
