It's good news for all those on a diet! This is a healthy fat free salad which doesnt taste like the usual low cal salads one gets so tired of eating..
Fat Free but not boring has always been my motto! If it's boring I wouldn't last more than a meal on a diet!
This is one of those dishes, which even though they are fat free can easily be served to guests at a party! :) Now you know what I mean! :)
