Best Salad Bar Choices
Salad bars offer so much variety and are a fast way to create a meal. With all of the tempting options, what should you choose if you want to lose?
-Pile on the plain veggies! Choose greens, cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots, celery, broccoli, cauliflower, mushrooms, sprouts, peppers, squash, water chestnuts, radishes and onions.
-Add a little protein. Choose chicken, turkey, ham, imitation crab, flaked tuna, kidney or garbanzo beans, and cottage cheese.
-Choose fresh fruit, such as pineapple, melon, bananas and apples.
-Avoid marinated or mayonnaise-based salads, cheeses, chopped egg and olives.
-Limit higher-fat toppings, such as croutons, shoestring potatoes, chow mein noodles, tortilla chips, sunflower seeds and bacon bits.
