These photos were swiped from my instagram account – are you following me at bgg2wl? – and are posted to my twitter account – are you following me @bgg2wl? – and perhaps should be posted on my facebook page – of course I’m gonna ask it… are you a fan? – but are now here, on the blog!

Oh my god!!!! I’ m salivating!!
And I recently heard at my parents’ house that salad is not “real food” …. –‘
*sigh
@ Marie LOL. I try to eat healthy… but my fam is always giving me a hard time 😉
Where dem recipes at?? (Just had to go Ebonics on this!!) They all look delicious and I want to try them, especially the Caribbean Cobb and the one with the shrimp pesto!
Hey this looks great! Veggies are the most important foods to eat and I am always looking for more ideas! Thanks! Beautiful blog!
Gorgeous photos and mouthwatering combinations. But I have to ask, as I always do when I see a “main course salad”, what about the carbohydrates? Often, when I’m at a restaurant, the healthiest item I can see on the menu (and, often, the only way to eat some vegetables) is to have a main course salad. But when I do that I’m still totally ravenous because there are no accompanying carbs. I feel dumb asking for a side order of rice/bread (and a bowl of plain rice is horrible to eat), but I hate to leave a restaurant feeling hungry. What are your suggestions for how to approach this?
Carbs? Vegetables are carbs. You’re asking about bread, which is a very different ballgame.
Bread isn’t what keeps you from feeling unsatisfied or keeps you from redeveloping that “hungry” feeling. Protein (and a little bit of fat) do that, LOL.
Beautiful pics everything looks delicious
What brand of sesame viniagrette do you use or is it a homemade recipe?? I’ve been looking for one forever!
Oh, that’s homemade, baby! I’ll be sure to share the recipe, though. 🙂
Please please please do ASAP! I’ve been looking for a good one for months! Thanks in advance!
Sis, thank you for this! I was just thinking “Man, I know I need to eat salad, but this is getting boring.” Boom! You have a salad gallery! Definitely giving me some great ideas! 🙂
