Apple Head Doll Salad
Serves 20 extremely generously for about 88 calories per 1-cup serving
You'll Need:
1 head of finely chopped green cabbage, or 8 cups of finely chopped cabbage (32 calories per cup)
1 head of finely chopped purple cabbage, or 8 cups of finely chopped cabbage (32 calories per cup)
3 finely chopped cored apples sprinkled with a tab of lemon juice to prevent browning (leave on peeling, if desired) (a good-sized 5-ounce apple will have about 80 calories)
1 twelve-ounce can of pineapple tidbits with juice (check your can for calories; our variety contained 180 calories)
Light Mayo, as desired - depending on how creamy you like your salad (Check your jar, but our variety contained 35 calories per Tablespoon. There are 16 Tablespoons in a cup and we used 1 cup of Mayo for our Apple Head Doll Salad.)
1/2 cup of Golden Raisins (dark raisins also work well!) (220 calories)
6 packets of Splenda or Equal (0 calories)
Mix well and serve with roasted chicken, a fresh loaf of rosemary bread, wild rice and a tall pitcher of iced tea with lemon & Splenda/Equal.
DIET TRIVIA: As a note, in an era gone by, Apple Head Dolls were the 'Barbie's' of their time. Before toy manufacturing came into place, apples were dried and used as the heads for little girl's dolls. My, we've come a long way!
Five Tips to Diet Up Your Salads for Dieters
1. Serve salad dressings on the side. Why? Because you may use less than intended.
2. Choose light, low fat dressings. Those with a vinegar base generally contain less calories. The catch is that are also generally higher in sodium.
3. Opt for LIGHT Mayo on your salad. One Tablespoon contains about 30 calories and adds a tangy burst of flavor to your salad. Rather than serve this ultra low calorie diet salad dressing on the side, simply mix the Mayo in your salad and enjoy.
4. Skip the cheese and croutons. If bacon bits are kept at a minimum, they are fine but again, there's that sodium factor leaping out at you!
5. Be sure to wash your vegetables well to remove commercial insecticides and harmful salmonella.
6. If your salad contains eggs, discard the yolks to save about 60 calories per egg.
7. Crackers contain about 15 calories each, and really add up. Count them out before you begin so that you don't lose count and consume more than you intend.
