Salad Express

Stopped for a really yummy lunch today! New restaurant called Salad Express. It's a chain, from what I gathered, but they let you build your own salad. I got the junior size, which gives you 4 add ins, plus dressing. I also added some turkey to mine for protein. It was huge! I can't imagine getting the bigger size.

Contents of bowl:
Spring mix
cucumber
carrots
gorgonzola cheese
dried cranberries
turkey breast
fat free raspberry vinaigrette. I just love the combo of cranberries and cheese. This was sooo good!

After some shopping (I bought 2 pairs of size 8 pants!! Yippee!!) we had coffee and a treat at Mocha Lisa's, one of our favorite coffee shops. It's fairly far from home, so it's a real treat to get here. The ambiance is wonderful, as is the food.


The treat is an almond horn, which I adore.

Dinner at home. Note that I did not have broccoli tonight!
Sweet potato fries, clam strips and strawberries. Very tasty.

Movie at home tonight, with some chocolate chips and pretzels :)

I've heard of Salad Express - one opened not too far from me - glad to know a small one is HUGE!

Love seeing your pics. Where did you get the sweet potato fries? Hubby's been wanting some, and I make some, but he wants some from a freezer section, so just wondering. Thanks Vee at www.veegettinghealthy.blogpsot.com
