Have I Told You Lately that I LOVE You?



Galeos Miso Ceasar salad dressing will help you drop one dress size.  It holds no weight loss properties but it is a great way to add flavor to salad and vegies with next to no calories.  It does not exactly taste like Ceasar but it does taste good.  If you are not a fan of Ceasar, there are 3 other flavors.  You can find this low Cal delight at Albertson's/Bristol Farms, Wholefoods, Ralphs and Gelsons.  You will find in the refrigerated section.

Dark Greens and Goat Cheese Salad



I am a big fan of the salad. I grew up eating salad at least once a day so I have had years to play with ingredients.

Ingredients
Bib Lettuce
Fancy Spring Green
Laudemio Olive Oil (or an High quality OO)
Goat Cheese
Truffle Oil Salt
Lemon

I get my green mixes from Trader Joe's but really you can get them from anywhere. The key is to choose dark colored greens. I would stay away from Romaine and Iceberg. Place your greens into a bowl and crumble the goat cheese on top. Drizzle olive oil over the top of the salad and cheese. Add truffle salt at will. Squeeze half a lemon over the top. Toss the salad and you are ready to go.



Tips: (1) It is easier to squeeze out the lemon juice when you roll the lemon first.

(2) Recently, I had a dinner party and used the remaining goat cheese from the night before.



This salad is a great side for comfort food.
