Salad Sans the Lettuce

So... The other day I refused to make the trek to the grocery store just for lettuce - since that was the only thing I needed - so I served our salad with everything but! It was delish!

As a matter of fact, I liked it so much that I made it for my lunch the next day and topped it with two hard boiled eggs. A great power-lunch for anyone, but especially breast-feeding moms like me! I love the diversity of color, textures and nutrients.

What I LOVE about this salad is that it keeps in the fridge beautifully and makes a great lunch to pack for yourself or hubby for work (even prepping it the night before).

Here's to thinking outside the box! :)


Below is what I've had in mine, but the possibilities are ENDLESS:

(Everything chopped)
Sweet peppers
Cherry tomatoes
Mushrooms
Brussel Sprouts
Carrots
Avocado
Bleu cheese
Olive oil & Balsamic drizzled on top
(Last night I added Zucchini, wasn't bad!)
