Yesterday I made Asian Chopped Salad with Sesame Soy Vinaigrette. I just had one for lunch, and I am pleased with how they turned out. The only change I made to the recipe was using butter lettuce from our garden instead of the romaine lettuce the recipe calls for. These salads are huge. They are full of my favorite vegetables. I’ll be making them again.

I’m enjoying making salads for the week at once and pulling them out of the fridge for lunch. It is easy to avoid snacking at lunch time if I have a big salad ready and waiting for me to eat. It is much easier for me to make healthy choices if I plan ahead.
