get those veggies in

you're supposed to have a daily salad with a jc menu, but i never do. spoiled kid, i dont know, never got into salads. when i do eat them, they're covered im ain dressing, have plenty of corn or fried chicken strips or tuna with heavy mayo. pero anyways, i haven't been eating salads w/the jc program, instead i eat sides of steamed broccoli, sliced raw red bell peppers... that's it! so lately i've been trying to add vegetables to my jc meals. i friggin love these cans of diced or crush tomatoes, y'all. today i added half a can of diced tomatoes & sweet onion and half a cup of frozen spinich to my jc spinich and cheese tortellini. earlier in the week, i mixed the tuna salad with extra chopped celery, onion, and diced tomatoes. eat it a'top slices of red bell pepper. last week i did the same thing, but mixed it in with a can of green beans. does that sound gross? it wasnt, it was really good. i'd read another blog where a person made a huge salad, topped with jc chili con carne and taco sauce for a low cal taco salad. i dont really care for the jc chili con carne, but do try it out yourself and let me know how you like it.
