Easy Tossed Salad (135 calories total or 6 servings at 23 calories each)
10 leaves romaine lettuce (50 calories)
2 roma tomatoes (25 calories)
1/2 red bell pepper (15 calories)
1/2 yellow bell pepper (15 calories)
1 cucumber (30 calories)
- wash veggies
- cut veggies into bite sized pieces
- mix them all up in a big bowl
- top with your favorite cheese, salad dressing, and/or croutons
My favorite dressing is ranch... and it has to be homemade. So I buy the Hidden Valley Ranch mix and make it myself using lower calorie ingredients. I use light mayo which cuts the calories WAY down. You can also use fat free mayo for even fewer calories!
