117 WAS THE MAGIC NUMBER.
Guess it wasn't so very bad with all the food from the buffet. Probably also had a dessert that wasn't mentioned.
My favorite salad to help with getting fresh vegetables with lots of fiber and micronutirents is:
chop all in bite sized pieces
1 head of CAULIFLOWER
1 bunch of BROCCOLI
1 whole bunch of CELERY
It makes a lot, so I often share. To keep for a few days put in a gallon sized freezer bag and store in the refrigerator. Keeps well.
To serve: 1 cup plus tomato, cucumber, sliced onion and other raw vegetables as desired. Can also add a small serving of lean chicken, turkey or one boiled egg. I like with olive oil, vinegar and spices for dressing. Use your own favorite or whip up a homemade low cal dressing.
Another favorite way to serve is add a few chopped almonds, a teaspoon of raisins and buttermilk ranch dressing. Just be sure to keep track of calories in dressing as this is often the downfall in dieting...since a salad makes you think you're eating light.
