It’s about flavor…
When I was a child I had trouble eating salad. I just found it boring. Of course there was nothing added to it to make it interesting. It took me a long time to find simple ways to add interest and flavor without adding lots of calories (from salad dressing). These are the ways I’ve found which work for me:-
- Add grated carrot – carrots are very healthy and tasty
- Add mandarin or orange segments – delicious and healthy
- Add very finely chopped red onion – just 1 slice is enough to add flavor without tasting of raw onion. (I slice up an onion and freeze it – just remove a slice when I need it)
- Use vine ripened tomatoes – they taste great
- Add grated cheese – a small quantity will do
- Add chopped parsley or coriander – or your favorite herb
