Green Leafy Salads for Meat & Seafood Lovers

While I love eating salads, it’s hard to get my meat loving husband on board. He doesn’t mind eating salads but will always order a side of protein every single time. While that is perfectly fine, I wanted to find a happy medium for the both of us.

I started researching recipes and found so many great ones that are packed full of seafood and meat or all kinds. I’ve been adding them to my weekly meals and have had a great response. We are still eating healthy and getting added nutrition with the protein that we’ve added in.

We love fajitas here in Texas, but this salad from I Heart Naptime is my new obsession. Her EASY Fajita Salad is more filling, and I feel a lot less guilty when I’m looking at a plate full of salad versus the plate full of fajitas! If you’re watching your diet, slim down this beautiful meal by reducing the avocado slices to one or two, skip the crushed tortilla chips, and add a little romaine or curly lettuce.
