New salad for dinner tonight - yep, it was great!

Feb 28, 2010

I made a new salad tonight for dinner that I got off of the recipe board on Bariatric Eating.  It was very very good and sat very well.  The recipe can be found here:http://www.bariatriceating.com/BEhealthnutrition/recipes/chinesecabbagesalad.php
I made some changes to it for ours.  Here's what I did differently: I added 2 cups of rotisserie shredded chicken, 2 teaspoons of salt instead of 1.5, about 3/4 of the head of cabbage instead of the whole thing and 1/2 bunch of green onions instead of 1 whole bunch.  My protein was WAY higher because of the added chicken.

My husband was giving me crazy looks as I was putting it together this afternoon, but when he tried it tonight he asked if he could take it as his lunch to work tomorrow.  Always a GREAT sign!  The actual salad that I made looks pretty similar to the picture on BE's website.  Below is my snap shot of Ryan's lunch tomorrow =)  The black specs are "roasted" sesame seeds... they roasted just a tad too long!
