So Im going out to lunch and scoped out the menu before hand... Im sick of ordering plain chicken salads and this sounds like a healthy option:

MEXICAN CITY STREET SALAD
A very traditional salad sold on the streets of Mexico
City. Very refreshing! Diced mango, cucumbers,
jicama, chile arbol dust and pineapple.
Served over organic butter lettuce and tossed with
lemon vinaigrette.

Ill probably get this hold the dressing and not use any or just use lemon, or vinegar.

What would you calorie count guess be for this item? Of course Ill have to see the size to guess but Im gonna say if they used half a cup of each fruit based on fresh not canned in syrup, and veg, 1.5 cups lettuce, and a tbsp of chili powder: about 167 calories? That sounds too good to be true! Any thoughts or weigh ins (no pun intended!)?

Certainly under 200 calories: the lettuce and cucumbers will be nothing (under 50, certainly) and jicama is 50/cup, mango is 100/cup and the pineapple is about 75/cup, but there is no way they will actually put a cup of each on the salad.

The dressing, of course, will be 500 calories or so, but you already know that!

So I asked the waitress if it was fresh or canned. She said mixed. It came with grapefruit too. The mango had some peel on parts and looked cut so I thick it was fresh. The pineapple still had some seed places so I think it was too. I guess the only thing that might not have been was the grapefruit which I took off/ don't like! Yeah so yay for low cal!
