Weight Watchers Dreamsicle Salad Recipe
Gemma + Andrew Ingalls For SweetGreen
Summer gets all of the credit for having great salad-ready produce, but there are plenty of fall fruits and veggies that are packed with nutrients and taste great, too. This turkey and fall vegetable salad from Michael Stebner, the director of culinary innovation at Sweetgreen, a delicious up-and-coming salad chain, is perfect if you're trying to drop a few pounds: "Rosemary is great for weight loss as it is virtually calorie free, loaded with health benefits, and high in taste," says Keri Glassman, RD, a Women's Health contributor. Brussels sprouts, another main ingredient in this salad, are also ideal because they're packed with filling fiber—and are low in calories.
Unlike some slimming foods, this salad will leave you loaded with energy: "Sweet potatoes are a vitamin- and mineral-rich energy source that also contain resistant starch, a natural dietary fiber that 'resists' digestion in the gut to help keep you full longer," says Glassman. "Grapeseed oil contains monounsaturated fats, which take time to digest, helping you eat less while staying energized." Make it tonight to have lunch covered all week long.
