Salads should be palatable without having to add oil or other fatty dressings to help it down the gullet.

This salad is moist, tasty and fat free.

• 2-3 tomatoes
• 1 tin of French cut beans
• salt
• pepper

1. dice the tomatoes
2. drain the green beans
3. season the tomatoes
4. mix in the green beans

Variations are very easy for this salad.

Additional seasoning variations:

• garlic
• green onions
• chives
• cilantro
• dill
• parmesan / romano
• anything you might like

You also don't have to limit yourself to French cut beans, baby corn, mushrooms, chopped celery, bits of cheese, etc can also be added.

Below is a tomato salad with French cut beans and baby corn.

You could season it with vinegar or lemon / lime juice if you are so inclined, but I don't think it needs it.

I am not crazy about green salads, so I came up with this one. I didn't see the point of having to add oil and cream to a salad to make it palatable - seesm tot defeat the purpose in my opinion.

I suppose you could also add things like bell peppers and cucumber if you like crunch. Water chestnuts would also probably be a good choice.

You never cook food with veggies? No carrots, potatoes, corn, peas, etc ...

Richard,
It's good to see you on this new blog. I just posted today after a super-long hiatus saying that I am making plans for a new blog myself. Just as soon as I figure out how I want it to look and what kind of things I want it to say ;)
How are you, my friend?

I did try it,Richard.I added some white asparagus then seasoned with non-oil sesame sauce and it was reallyyyyyy good!!i think cucumber is a good idea too.

well,even cauliflower,broccoli and any other veggies could be mixed up,right?
