Favorite Salad

I'm a creature of habit. I eat the same oatmeal (rolled oats, dried fruit, cinnamon & honey) every morning. I ate homemade soup every day for 6 months. Currently, I am out of my soup, which is so sad, so I've had to move on to salad.

This week's salad is: lettuce, carrot, zucchini topped with 1/2 cup of chickpeas and then 1/3 cup of cottage cheese. Pack this in a lunch container. Don't mix the salad together & it stays super crunchy. At work, open container, dig down about 1/2 way, add a squirt of fat free Ranch dressing and then mix.

Savour and enjoy all the delightful healthy bites. (And feel just a little bit superior to your co-workers who are eating fried, battered or otherwise unhealthy lunches.)
