I am 75 years young, have some problems remembering but what I would love to know is how many calories, carbs it has. I do not know how to figure it out Thank you so much
I am not good at figuring out calories either Mary! Maybe try googling a website that will do that for you?
Wow that sounds delicious! Thank you for sharing on Meetup Monday!
That looks so good! And perfect for my low-carb life! I wonder how ranch dressing would taste with it too!
You should definitely give it a try with ranch!

This recipe looks so good. I want to eat more salads at home for lunch. #smallvictories
I really enjoyed this simple salad. It has all of my favorite things in it. Thanks for sharing this nice keeper.
We had this tonight with some steak. Very good. I think it would be over the top better if the mushrooms were fried. Thanks for posting this. 🙂
I’m so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the idea of frying the mushrooms.
