I love fruit salad, well, all fruits and vegetables actually. What fruits and vegetables are highly recommended and which should I stay away from? What are some good salad ideas for meals?

Anyone have any good salad recipes or ideas? I want to make a salad an entire meal with PFC

I like Green leaf salads = Spinach, romaine, etc (I think iceberg is low vitamin)
I usually throw that in w/ some carrots, broccoli, etc
And some sliced fruit, Berries, apples, oranges, pineapple, raisens, dates, etc
~I use enough sweet fruits so that a dash of H20 creates its own juicy dressing~
And don't forget nuts or even beans
Then I eat protein on the side
(I like organic & very fresh, not pre pkgd greens)
(My thinking is = less preparation is better)
IE = cutting, chopping, peeling
I have a juicer and make about 3/4gal of fresh veg/fruit juice 2x week also
Helpful?

What about tomatoes? I love them. Any benefit from those?

Tomatoes are healthy, but have some natural sugar in them... use less tomatoes than things like spinach/broccoli/cucumber/green pepper, but more than other fruits

I say use any fresh, organic, ingredients you like...
If you are not shredding for comp, I can't imagine you could stuff enough veggies to get fat!?!?
