Butternut Squash Salad

So I bought this HUGE butternut squash, and realized I had no idea how to prepare it, I just knew I loved the taste. As with all my veggies, I put them in a small microwave plastic pot, zap it for a minute or two, and its as easy as that. For this dish I also grilled the squash on a tray in the oven. This salad also has turkey, Wheat Thins Flatbread crackers over romaine. Tasty :).


Turkey Avocado Salad

This salad requires no cooking and contains my favorite salad ingredient, avocado.


So simple - avocado, turkey, and Wheat Thins Flatbread crackers over romaine.

Brussel Sprout Salad

You'll be seeing a lot of salads from me on here. I love salads but they can get dull if you don't come up with new creations. I enjoy them because they are very healthy, take awhile to eat so you can enjoy it, and there are many ways to be creative with ingredients.



This salad is romaine lettuce topped with low fat turkey, one hard boiled egg, half a tomato, a third avocado, and lined with brussel spouts which I boiled and salted. I use crumbled crackers like Kashi's  7 grain crackers as a healthy alternative to packaged croutons. The dressing used is Marie's balsamic vinaigrette.
