Salad, what is the point?

[DaisyNonna]

Just checked a bag of salad. 1 of one's 5 a day is 100gm. of green salad. If I ate that much at one meal I would be too bored to eat anything else. Not that it is filling. Is it just an expensive waste?

watercress is my favourite (and very good for you)

[DaisyNonna]

I actually enjoy a green salad but find it rubbish towards my 5 a day

I'm a kebab girl, maxina, but not more than once a month :-)

[DaisyNonna]

Yes. Do check your grammar.

boxy, i cant remember the last time i had a kebab, ooh its got to be about 12 months ago! ..
so i now think one just might be on the cards in the not too distant future, lol.

ive just had a few nice green mixed salady leafs, with some geetas hot chilli and lime pickle (tis gorjus) and some fresh crusty bread with pate on it, for my supper...

was rather nice ;o)

Salad - I can't live without it.

I grow it from May to September to guarentee a constant supply and eat it most days, either for lunch with hummous or in a sandwich and for dinner with new or jacket potatoes, pasta, or as a side salad. In fact I can't think of much I wouldn't add salad to at this time of the year.

Once we get into autumn I shall miss it but even I can't eat it with stew or roast dinner!
