OMG! I had the best salad for dinner! Poached chicken breasts yesterday. Sliced and warmed to put on top of bed of Power Greens. Went to farmstand this past weekend for fresh strawberries. Halved them and tossed them on the salad with some feta cheese, a tbsp of crumbled bacon, and a quartered boiled egg. Drizzled the whole thing with my homemade Sweet Balsamic Vinaigrette (I keep it in a mason jar) and a smattering of toasted walnuts. It was SO good! (And so easy..Is this even a recipe?)
I'll have you know that I've paid BIG bucks for salads just like this at laMadeleine and Panera Bread! I can't believe something so quick, simple, healthful and d-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s came out of my kitchen so easily. Oh, and my husband cleaned his plate!! YAY! This meal was my post-workout protein and it was SO worth the work. :D I know...food still excites me. Not sure that will ever change, but at least it's a salad and not late-night Whataburger runs!

I cannot wait until the farm stands open up here. I plan on eating most of my food from them. We have tons and tons of farmer markets up here. But because winter was SO LATE leaving the farmers are a bit behind on the work :( But I do love summer veggies :)

Oh man...you mentioned Whataburger....those honey chicken biscuits call my name. No. I will not think of them. I will not think of them.

speaking of food exciting us, once i surrendered to enjoying and developing my palate, i find that most fast food is too bland and boring for me. It's all the same cardboard like taste. I want things to sing in my mouth, make tasty explosions and I get that occurance much more often with good food than fast food.

Sounds really good LuC2! OK, I might switch the feta for gorgonzola though ;-) I do think food SHOULD be exciting! I've had fun doing what you did - recreating a really good healthy meal at home that tastes good. What goes into your Balsamic Vinegarette? I use a lot of balsamic - LOVE the stuff!

Sounds amazing. I get bored with carrot, celery and tomato. I usually eat the boiled egg on the side, but bacon and feta - mmmmhhh.

sounds great, I also add to my salads, orange sections, sesame seeds, red onion, greek olives, halved grapes. Also for omega 3, add cold or warm salmon instead of chicken.

Oooo, CCerza, that sounds good too! I have a Sunny Anderson Salmon and Fennel salad to try this week (its got a Citrus Vinaigrette). It's already in My Cookbook. So if anybody beats me to making it, give us a review!
