When eating that lovely, dark green, leafy salad of yours, I have a fine suggestion. Toss it before you eat it! Drizzle your dressing onto your salad, not too much, then toss it so that the dressing coats all your leaves.
This will help cut down the amount of dressing you use. If you simply pour dressing on, you'll eat that layer and find that the succeeding layers don't have enough dressing. You then might pour on a little more and a little more then all of a sudden you have way too much dressing, calories, and fat.

Ooh! I just had my salad today with some awesome dressing from Annie's. It's this really great company that makes organic and natural foods like dressing and crackers and cereal and mac and cheese. Anyway, the flavor was fantastic: Creamy Asiago Cheese. I recommend it.
So remember, toss it before you eat it (picture coming soon)
In health,

I've found that I love using hummus instead of salad dressing :) But I'm having a hard time finding things online that tell me just how much healthier it is in comparison to regular dressings haha. Do you have any idea?
ReplyDeleteAlso, omg I love asiago cheese.
Hummus? Fantastic! That's wonderful and I can tell you it is healthier. You know how hummus is made from chick peas, yes? Well chick peas are beans and beans are awesome. They have fat but it's natural and not added. I would say that hummus will beat salad dressing in a calorie competition every time (as in yay fewer calories). So yes, good job Ada!
ReplyDeleteoh my GOD, I ate asiago cheese by the block in Italy. iiiiii need this dressing.
