I always like a good salad, but not one just of lettuce, tomatoes and cucumber,
And when I have not got much time I sometimes cheat. Don't we all!
Today my salad consisted of-
half a tin of new potatoes.
half a tin of pineapple pieces.
half a tin of mixed beans.
half a tin of sweetcorn.
one cut up cooked beetroot.
one cut up tomato
a few slices of cucumber.
and a few pieces of lettuce.
all topped with mayonnaise.
I must admit it made quite a plateful probably enough for two. But as I love salad
I managed to eat quite a bit.
And as you can see by the cans most were the value range so super cheap.
I could eat this every day for lunch. I would just vary the ingredients, maybe adding peppers
mushrooms and cheese or maybe pasta instead of the potatoes.
What meal could you eat everyday?
Do you love salad or do you have to have chips with it?
That salad is so unique! Now you've inspired me to see what I can find in the pantry for a salad for dinner. I have fresh lettuce and spinach for starters. Thanks for the ideas!
ReplyDeletePammy Sue I just try to use what I have.

ReplyDeleteMy son loves homemade lasagne we have it at least once a week but can't get him to eat salad.

I've never seen a salad like yours but it looks delicious. I like green salads that have lots of different vegetables in it. Yum!

I like all sorts of salads but I do love to add pineapple and beetroot to most Betsy. It depends what I have in.

I love a good salad , so versatile, we like the salad they do in pizza hut, so instead of wasting money I do a big salad buffet at home.
ReplyDeleteIts been a long time in fact years since I have been to pizza hut. But I do remember their salads. Yes so much cheaper made at home.

ReplyDeleteGlad your lunch is sorted. I love eggs too, and as we are lucky to have our own chickens the eggs are just fab.
