Portions and Ingredients ď ś When preparing or ordering a salad, find the right balance of ingredients, and keep portion size in check. Good intentions can be easily be cancelled out by eating too much of a good thing, like salad dressing or crumbled cheese. ď ś Ask for dressing on the side so you can control the amount you consume. Look for salads that are high in protein, high in veggies, and moderate in healthy fats.
