| | Ah, salad days! With warmer days ahead, even for those of us in the Pacific Northwest, we can look forward to lighter meals featuring all manner of salads. But first, what makes a good and healthy salad? | | The Low Fat Salad What could be healthier or more low fat than salad? Well, it depends what's in it and on it. In its basic state--a bed of salad leaves with chopped vegetables, it is indeed low fat and healthy. It's what is added to our salads that gets us into trouble. | Tuna, Bean and Couscous Salad This low-fat tuna, bean and couscous salad makes a fast, healthy and nutritious supper. Serve chilled or at room temperature. | Chicken and Pasta Salad Quick and easy to prepare, this low fat summer chicken and pasta salad makes a light yet filling lunch or supper on a warm evening. Enjoy with a chilled glass of wine. | Mediterranean Salad Beans, artichokes, red peppers, and tomatoes on a bed of arugula make a great combination. To make a full meal out of this salad, top it with water-packed tuna or some cooked chicken skinless chicken breast. | | | | Low Fat Cooking Ads | | | | Featured Articles | | | | | | Sign up for more free newsletters on your favorite topics | | | | You are receiving this newsletter because you subscribed to the About Low Fat Cooking newsletter.
