I try to eat as many fresh raw vegetables as possible usually in the form of a big salad for lunch each day. My standard consists of romaine and red or green leaf lettuce, diced raw squash and zuchini, sliced mushrooms, mini yellow and red peppers, black olives, artichoke hearts , heart of palm, green or red onion and peppercini. Any other good vegetables I might add?

I forgot cherry tomatoes.i always have them . Usually cucumber as well.

As far as protein it is usually grilled or canned chicken , sometimes some crumbled bacon, usually a little feta.

You need avocado. And tomatoes. But those are both fruits.

I don't care for raw squash, zucchini or broccoli. Cauliflower and chopped brussel sprouts are good. Love hard boiled eggs.

I don't love salads for meals unless seafood is involved. I could eat a plate of homegrown tomatoes alone or caprese style.

Depends on my salad. I love a Italian type of dressing with crunchy lettuce and artichoke hearts and hearts of palm. I like the house salad at Bonefish a lot--with hearts of palm and a lemon dressing.

But I am a sucker for a goat cheese, berries/fruit, walnut, roasted beet, etc. type of salad.

Hell, I like a crouton and iceberg and homemade ranch salad too.

My lettuce of choice is Romaine. Then some rainbow pasta. If I don't have some chicken or shrimp handy I go meatless.
