I've been lo carbing to lose a few pounds lately and I've been eating salads for lunch and sometimes dinner too. My favorite, fill you up salads are actually warm...yes, warm

If I make chicken breast and veggies for dinner my husband will have potatoes with it but I will cut up the chicken breast and put it on my lettuce, ad the veggies on top, use a little blue cheese dressing, shredded cheese and maybe some slivered almonds and 3 or 4 wheat thins. That fills me up but I don't feel heavy full. You can use any combination of meat and veggies that you want...chicken, green beans, home made stewed tomatoes and blue cheese dressing is really good.

For lunch I use lettuce and some tuna or chicken salad, shredded cheese, almonds, a few wheat thins and blue cheese dressing .

I also love the broccoli, bacon, red onion, raisins, sunflower seeds or pine nuts with he mayo/vinegar/sugar (or splenda) dressing. That one is a big hit everytime I make it.
