A new spin on salad

By Elliott

We often see salad as a first course or a meal supplement, but when eating late, not in the mood to cook, or looking for a light meal a salad, even a high volume salad, can do the trick. This may seem like common sense but we can't forget that a salad can be much more than just lettuce. I thought it would be interesting to assemble a list of salad ideas for avid salad eaters and novice saladsmen alike. Perhaps we can one day convince a certain family member of ours that salad is not only a healthy, necessary part of ones diet but a fun, easy to make, and delicious meal.

Why people eat vegetables

By Nikki

I was browsing the New York Times and eating a bowl of cereal when I came across this article: Even Benefits Don't Tempt Us to Vegetables. It reminded me of two things: 1.) That I hadn't eaten a single serving all day, and 2.) That this blog's inspiration asked me a related question last weekend. The question was something like, "Why do people eat vegetables?" I couldn't come up with a good answer. I eat them sometimes because I like them and they don't make me feel guilty. Turns out there's more to it, as this article explains.

Glazed pumpkin bran muffins: Lowfat deliciousness + a shitload of fiber

By Nikki

We've been eating these for breakfast (and sometimes dessert) all week. We toast them and put a little butter or cream cheese on them, and my thinking is this is fine because there is very little fat in the recipe. I count 4.3 grams and less than 1 gram of saturated fat. (OK, that's not counting the optional walnuts.)
