For the past 3 nights I have been faithful...and what kills me is the fact that none of the ingredients alone make my favorites list~
4 cups torn baby spinach (not a fave)
approx 1/2 oz crumbled gorgonzola (not a fave)
approx 1/2 oz candied pecans chopped (okay, these are awesome anytime)
1 large pear, juicy and not too crisp, cored and chopped, with skin (not a fave)
Approx 3 tbsp red wine vinegar
Approx 1/2 tsp - 1 tsp yellow mustard
Approx 1 tsp olive oil (recipes for this type of salad always call for more oil - but I prefer it light)
1-2 packets of splenda, sugar, or other sweetener
Pinch of salt
Fresh ground pepper to taste
Makes a giant salad (could easily be split for two large side salads), and the small amounts of higher calorie ingredients keep it to about 375 calories for the whole thing while still tasting luxurious (and while it's not low fat by any means, it has tons of Vitamin A, C, and E, and a good dose of fiber)...and seriously, I'm in love
