A Quick Crunchy-Healthy Salad 'Bowl'

Oh my. . .This was nothing short of excellent! Everything fresh, crunchy and very healthy! Often I'll top this with a truly healthy dressing. My favorite is till my very own Lemon-Olive Oil Salad Dressing. Today I went a different direction. . .

Lately I'll buy a large bottle of an Aldi's brand Ranch Salad Dressing. As soon as I've used about 1/4 of it, as is, I then make additions. Sometimes basil pesto, or curry paste, or horseradish and seedy mustard. .  .this time it was tomato pesto. In addition to that, I also drizzled right onto the salad, some toasted sesame oil and white Balsamic vinegar. Lots of people still seem to be stuck in the 'low fat' mentality of the '70's. This thinking has been proven wrong for most healthy people. . . We don't have health or weight issues because we eat fat. Simple carbohydrates are the true villains here!

Today the vegetables in this bowl are:

1 sm. avocado
3 green onions
broccoli florets
1/2 med. tomato
sugar snap pea pods
1 mini English cucumber
many stalks of chopped cilantro

And remember, Soup Season is a bogus term - this also applies to Salad Season. Both should regularly be part of our daily food plans — All Year 'Round! . . Lin
