A Kitchen Sink Salad

We all had the entire month of January to get healthy … and let’s all admit it, it didn’t happen. So here we go again: the salad lifestyle. It may seem daunting and not tasty, but I’ve got a few tricks up my sleeve. The first one, which was today’s dinner, is what I called a Kitchen Sink Salad. That’s the type of salad I tend to make when I am trying to make some space in the fridge or ready the fridge for a new load of groceries. Take a look at this beauty:

I am sure your first reaction is that I dressed it with a creamy dressing … maybe a ranch. In fact, I dressed it with a homemade dressing made form 2% greek yogurt, mint and cucumber. That’s right, no additional oil and low fat. Given the healthfulness of the dressing, I could dress the salad a little more generously to up the luxury factor. Aside from the super dressing, the salad had kale, romaine, carrots, raw beets, and basil. It was soooo good!
