Stop That Salad!

Just a drive-by post... more to come as autumn approaches.

From a Yahoo article on salads available now in restaurants:

* Taco Bell's Fiesta Salad® — 840 calories and 45 grams of fat
* Macaroni Grill's Chicken Caesar Salad® — 920 calories and 69 grams of fat
* Panera's Bistro Steak Salad® — 630 calories and 58 grams of fat
* Applebee's Grilled Steak Caesar Salad® — 1,190 calories and 75 grams of fat

Compare the salads above to the infamous McDonald's Big Mac®, which has 540 calories and 29 grams of fat.


Yikes!

Make mine spinach, purple cabbage, carrots, english peas, garbanzos, sunflower seeds and raisins please! with a side of Sass sesame garlic viniagrette.
