I am still trying to maintain my weight and doing mighty fine at it I might add. Some days? I just need to eat crap though. Yesterday? Was one of those days. Starbucks TWICE (bad I know), Red Robbins for a burger and fries and then crap again for dinner! Wow. Epic fail! But, I did not gain weight. Figure that out! So today? Decided to go a little healthier. Had a muffin for breakfast, skipped lunch (was on the LRT on my way to a meeting) and then made my favorite salad for dinner.
So here it is!
Start with some lettuce of your choice |
Add a little cheese. I had this in the fridge but my favorite for this salad is Edam |
Add dried cherries and almonds. Cranberries or raisins are not the same. Not sure why, but they don't taste as good. |
Add some green peas. I put them in a small bowl, top with water and microwave for 2 minutes. Makes it quick! |
Add this amazing dressing. I am not sure where to buy it. Probably on their web site. I get it at the Muttart in town. |
Super healthy! And there is the info to buy it. Look at that! It is a more savoury dressing than sweet. |
Add some quinoa |
Mix in a pretty bowl and enjoy! Super high in protein, tons of goodness and yummy! If you ever come to my house, I will make it for you! |

Looks delish!
it does look yummy, what exactly is quinoa?
Quinoa is a seed. You can get it bulk at your grocery store and you cook it just like rice. It is the highest form of protein you can eat and super yummy! I add it to soup, salads, instead of hashbrowns with some scrambled eggs and stuff mixed in! You name it I eat it! It is amazing. Check it out on wikipedia. They have a good description.
