Salad of The Day (SOTD :tm:) — Did You Eat A Salad Today?

My wife was out to dinner after events Wednesday and Thursday, and I had some mixed greens and a half bag of spinach that I needed to use up. Plus some other this-n-thats that needed used.

Prepare to be slightly grossed out. :slight_smile:

I few days before I had made pan-fried kielbasa, cabbage wedges, green beans and baby taters (the latter three pre-cooked so as to just mainly get fried in the kielbasa fat a bit).

So I warmed that up and dumped it over the greens (chopped up the cabbage wedge first), tossed on some bagged topping stuff (cran/cherry/walnut/sunflower seeds, dried chickpeas) and 3 hard boiled eggs. I dressed it with a vinaigrette I made from pomegranate molasses.


The next night I needed to use of some ground beef that I’d browned with onions and garlic, that also had an accidental overdose of Tex-Mex type spices in it. My 2nd daughter on Monday had grabbed the bag of beef/onion and went to season it for a taco, but accidentally used the ancho chili powder instead of the regular chili powder she thought she was using, so it was too spicy for her.

More eggs, some avocado bits, the same bagged topping, and this time I made a honey mustard dressing using Guldens plus some dry mustard.




These were big salads. For size reference, the bowl is 9 inches diameter. I have no clue how many calories they were.


Edit - sort of a weird notion, but I feel like I’m “cheating” on the What’s For Dinner thread!
