As far as the beef goes, there are lots of brands that make a low fat, low sodium roast beef and they'll tell you what the cholesterol percentage is, if you ask. If your deli has it, the Thin and Trim brand is really tasty and very lean. I actually started making my own dressings because the sodium and sugar content in most of the bottled dressings is so high. I hope you can find a dressing that suits your tastes. If I had absolutely no willpower, I'd eat the honey balsamic dressing with a spoon. lol Let me know if you try one of them, OK?

I didn't realize you could just ask...Hey, Mary! I didn't realize you could just ask them to slice the deli meats to a thickness different from what's in the case! That's definitely something to keep in mind for my next trip to the grocery store! My husband is a HUGE salad lover. I make one to accompany his dinner each evening. He would lust after this salad with thick slices of chicken. (Cholesterol problem...has to watch that beef intake. Can you believe that? In MISSOURI??!?!! We're KNOWN for our beef here!!!!!!!) I usually just prepare the chicken at home, but there are those days when time slips away or you just don't have it in ya to go there, so this is good to know! And yes...I'll remember the number once they get it just right! :-)<br /><br />I'll check out your Salad Dressing Bootcamp. Salad dressing is so expensive sometimes and SO salt-laden. I want to be able to make my own and control the amount of salt that goes into it.Alycia Nicholshttp://tabletwentyone.wordpress.com/2013/04/09/going-green-for-spring/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8595626797911453964.post-88815665898188272902013-04-10T02:44:18.803-04:002013-04-10T02:44:18.803-04:00I'm a salad lover as well and I've pinned ...I'm a salad lover as well and I've pinned your dressing to give it a try.
