<In a pic taking/posting mood, she's coming home late so I'm making supper, what I do best.> Out of Colby, dammit! No grated cheese so it can't be perfect!Spinach leaves... Tomato (cut with her WUSTHOF knife, without permission)... English cucumber... Avocado... Fake crab... Mushroom (mine only)... Black olives and artichoke (mine only)... A little crunchy stuff... Boiled egg, more black pepper and dressing... Hungry?

Naw, this is the perfect salad: Cattle eat the salad depicted and then steaks are made from them.

Except for the surimi (yuck!), looks tasty!

In keeping with my new weight-loss regime,salad is now on the menu.I made a simple one the other day but without a dressing felt it would be a little bland. My poorly stocked cupboards offered little hope until I remembered what my dad used to put on our salad when we were kids.
So,I made a simple dressing using vinegar,sugar,olive oil,a little mustard and some garlic. Thinking about it,I'm sure dad just used to use sugar and vinegar.A simple dressing but it made all the difference.

The only dressings I eat are Caesar, Ranch and bleu cheese. Those are healthy right?

Very nice work Mark I've ditched spreads,I have gone back to proper butter. That was 3 weeks at my brothers place that did that.Plus,no more 'diet' stuff like mayo etc.Just reasonable amounts when I do have it.No point making an already difficult eating change more unlikable. Picking up a pushbike Thursday to help move it along a bit.

I think I made a similar breakfast just last week.
That salad looks great. I need to do that soon.

It doesn't really matter what you use as dressing, it's how much you use. I've seen people that treat a salad like a dressing soup with lettuce floating in it. The Jedi Master
