Not A Fan Of Fruit Salad But....

In my ongoing quest to drop some weight, I have eaten fruit for lunch for the last year or so. I usually have whatever is in season, with now being the best time of the year for variety. The other day wifey had some folks over for a little luncheon, and she had some of his fruit salad left over. The peaches in the fridge didn't look that great, so I ate the salad instead. Man, was I surprised! First of all, it's all fresh - not canned. But best - there aren't too many different things to all run together. Watermelon, strawberries, and blueberries - that's all. No sugar, no nothing - just fruit. The three really compliment each other.

She was quite surprised that I liked it, so she bought some more and I have some every other day until they're out of season.

Try it!!!:thmbsp:

Not a fan of melon myself, but simple fruit salad is good. I've never been partial to that stuff with the syrup in it. Salsa is another "less is more" sort of food. You don't need 400 things in it, just a handful of fresh veggies and you're good to go. I made some of that earlier in the week so I had a use for the tomatoes.
 
and if you don't want to chew, blend. that stuff makes a great smoothie, without adding anything else.
 
Go the mexican route and flair it up. Squeeze of lime and dusting of chili powder! YUM!
 
There's a restaurant that has the BEST tomato and cucumber salad and I'm eating that plus a helping of meat to cut down my weight-also knocked off the beer and scotch for a while.
And YES that fruit salad would be on my list also.
 
I picked up the melon and berries at the store while I was getting stuff for a BBQ, I did squeeze just a touch a lemon juice over it. Great mix, I have enough for a couple more!
