Now I'll get one if we are going out. I make them for DD though because she loves them!

My main issue is that I only like salads with ranch. Which soooort of defeats the purpose. I mean, not entirely because I do make it with baby greens and veggies and nuts. But the dressing makes it not exactly a low-cal side so I usually just eat it as a meal a few times/month.

We go through phases of eating salad every night for a few weeks and then not at all for a few weeks. We eat a lot of Caesar salad and kale salad mix (shredded broccoli, kale, brussel sprouts, cabbage) in the winter. My LO will eat salad every few days - she does not like getting the same meal several days in a row. She likes Caesar salad and the purple cabbage/shredded broccoli/brussel sprouts from the kale salad mix.

We have some most days, or at least some cut up raw veggies. LO is only <10 months old, but already loves chomping on raw veggies! I hope he grows up to like salads. bushelandapeck on "How often do you eat salad?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-salad#post-1537997 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 18:04:14 +0000 bushelandapeck 1537997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We ate it with dinner most nights growing up and I always have some made for us at home. I eat it at least once a day, usually twice.

We eat salad a lot, especially for dinner. We haven't given it to LO yet though, we usually just sub for her with cucumbers and cherry tomatoes.

It's a lot more in the summer though, when there are more fresh veggies available. We tend to do more roasted veggies as sides in the winter, rather than salads.

I guess I need to get him his own apron :silly: Both my kids eat salad with a little dressing - but to them salad is just lettuce [attach=4342/14/n3d3hp.448x600.IMG_2641-1-.JPG] Boheme on "How often do you eat salad?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-salad#post-1536643 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 12:02:11 +0000 Boheme 1536643@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Probably like twice a day? A big one for lunch (spinach, arugula, mushrooms, avocado, sunflower seeds, tomato, celery, red pepper, splash of balsamic vinegar & lemon juice) and then a smaller, more basic one at dinner. looch on "How often do you eat salad?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-salad#post-1536632 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 12:00:10 +0000 looch 1536632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'd say hardly ever for lunch, but i need to change that and with dinner, at least 4 times a week. I eat mostly romaine and mixed baby lettuce, sometimes spinach, dressed with olive oil and vinegar. yoursilverlining on "How often do you eat salad?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-salad#post-1536625 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 11:58:00 +0000 yoursilverlining 1536625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We eat salad almost every night with dinner, and I eat salad several days a week with/for lunch. LO likes arugula, baby bok choy, mustard greens and cooked spinach. I think what’s in your salad is more important than just eating a lot of “salad”. If salad only means iceberg lettuce topped with cheese and ranch dressing; you’re not getting much besides salt, sugar and fat added to your diet no matter how much salad you eat. If you’re talking about dark, leafy greens, good fats like nuts, oils and avocado, lean proteins, etc. then that’s a punch to your diet, even if you only have it a few times a week.

I find chewing lettuce such a chore!! So much work for so little benefit. Haha. Our LO has tried lettuce, spinach and different greens but he spits them back out. farawayyama on "How often do you eat salad?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-salad#post-1536575 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 11:44:56 +0000 farawayyama 1536575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Before I got pregnant, I ate it most days for lunch. I don't want it whist pregnant though - all that is really available here this time of year is bagged salad, and I don't trust that when pregnant. Plus my typical salads are basically a listeria party with blue cheese, soft eggs, the occasional rare steak, alfalfa when I can get it etc! I plan to start again in the summer when I can get whole lettuce again, and hopefully baby will like it! We ate it almost daily in summer gorwing up - but then I had a mother that would cook us green vegetables or serve us sala whenever we got takeout, which was rare!

I get really creative with ingredients depending on what I have on hand. LO goes through different phases in terms of what he eats vs picks out, but we don't make a big deal out of it and sure enough he cycles through to something else.

Maybe a couple times a month. Liam will eat lettuce and other salad veggies, especially if he can dip things in dressing, but he doesn't eat it with a fork, just kind of like veggies with dip. snowjewelz on "How often do you eat salad?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-salad#post-1536464 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 11:06:44 +0000 snowjewelz 1536464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Maybe like twice a month?

E better learn to like salad! I give it to her, but she just kind of sucks the dressing off right now. It's one of my go-to sides. A little arugula, a little oil and vinegar, done. californiadreams on "How often do you eat salad?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-salad#post-1536439 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 10:55:35 +0000 californiadreams 1536439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ pretty much never. i have never been a salad person, but i wonder if now if i should start to get LO into it.... rachiecakes on "How often do you eat salad?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-salad#post-1536434 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 10:54:44 +0000 rachiecakes 1536434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Just about every day.
