Sandwiches Don't Need Meat. Who Knew?

September 8, 2010 by Julie 34 Comments

Monster Monday Salad

The only veggies I ate yesterday were in the light spinach salad I ordered for lunch. My dinner was a bowl of clam chowder and a bag of 100-calorie popcorn… tasty, but not exactly full of nutrients.
