Mix and match lunch salad

Spinach Salad minus the fruit- N. Carlson

I've been asked to give my all purpose mix and match lunch salad combo for work.  The separate ingredients are brought to work and prepared just before eating.

One washable salad mixing bowl kept at work. Knife, fork and spoon.  Wash hands before preparing.

Salad mix (pre-washed) (1/2 bag):

• Baby spinach

• Kale mix with spinach or arugula 

Meat: Pre-cooked (eat cold or pre-heat separately) approx. 3 - 4 oz.  - cut in bowl

Nuts: 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup

Tips:

Eat two to three times a week.  Vary the combination of ingredients to reduce boredom.  This is not necessarily a low calorie meal but it is very nutritious and filling. This preparation also has a good amount of fiber so go easy at first.
