I love kidney beans and chic peas in my salad as well as cold (cooked) green beans, cucumbers and sliced hard boiled egg! For a bit of crunch try sunflower seeds or sliced almonds.

anyone know any good salad ideas?

We Answered:

Just get used to not having any fillers in your salad - like croutons, crackers, or sesame sticks. The best salads are just salads. Try a nice fresh mixed green salad, slice some strawberries, and add a balsamic vineagrette. You cuold even add a small amount of gorgonzola cheese, within the restrictions of your diet of course, if you wanted. If you need protein in it, add some sunflower seeds. Just a few go a long way and they are better for you than the above items.

Good luck and I hope you reach your goal!
