It was very tempting just to walk next-door to McDonalds, and I've kinda been wanting to try KFC's grilled chicken, but it was all the way across town.

The salad we ended up making was DELICIOUS, way better than anything we could have bought at a restaurant, and it was only 360 calories! You ... |
