Day 1/31 Days of tips for the New Year

Day 1- 

Healthy tip #1 for the new year: Instead of eating out, find their menu online and recreate it at home substituting things as you go such as wheat or gluten free in pasta or bread. My fave restaurant to get salad recipes right now is Travinia!http://www.traviniaitaliankitchen.com/travinia-lunch-menu.php

For instance: 

spinach with grilled chicken, spinach tortellini with cheese, roasted cherry tomatoes and fresh grated parmesan tossed in basil olive oil vinaigrette  

OR

romaine tossed in panera's fuji apple dressing, with chopped fuji apples and sliced red grapes with toasted pecans and a tiny bit of gorgonzola cheese.
