nutritional info

i hope you all are enjoying your PIXY food today! sam mentioned that all of the food is really good together, so he is having a little bit of the soup with the salad and the salmon.

the salad ~ you can put some of the salad in the LID and toss it with the dressing. that way you can have it more than one day and the salad won't get soggy. just a suggestion.

i also recommend heating the entire salmon meal. i figured out yesterday that the potato salad tastes better when it's warm.

all of the containers are freezable, microwavable and recyclable.

here is some nutritional info:

SOUP: there is absolutely nothing bad for you in this soup! in fact, lots of superfood and yogurt, which aids in digestion. star ingredients include honeydew and cucumbers, in addition to all sorts of veggies and fresh herbs from the farmer's market. i think this soup is so refreshing.

SALAD: the raspberry vinaigrette is made with raspberries, lemon juice, orange juice, extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, fresh herbs, stone ground mustard, honey, and salt and pepper. totally good for you!!!! you can even enjoy the bacon because it's turkey bacon cooked with one slice of real bacon for flavor. i divided that one piece of bacon among SIX of you, so you do the math.

POTATO SALAD: no mayo. as guilt-free as potatoes can be!

YOGURT DIP: i added a bit of sour cream to the yogurt, but it is mostly yogurt with cucumber and herbs. very healthy.

FRUIT: the marinade is honey, mint, basil and orange juice. i think lime juice too.

GRILLED PEACHES: the topping is a granola made by a new company in KC called "hippie chow". i mixed some of that granola with one tablespoon of butter (again, divided among six people), cinnamon, fresh nutmeg and sliced almonds. that's one guilt-free dessert. hope you like it!!!!

if anyone would like weight watcher points, please let me know. i could do some research and try to add that info to the blog!!!
