What's in the Fridge...Arugula and more Crab Sticks

As the holiday season approaches, I will make a conscious effort to eat a more balanced diet, or at least try, to compensate for the anticipated eatfest in the coming weeks. After the first "What's in the Fridge" post last 17 November (see post here http://dude4food.blogspot.com/2011/11/whats-in-fridge.html ), I decided to have another go at a fridge salad. Here's more "What's in the Fridge..."


Today, the fridge yielded some arugula and mixed greens, tomatoes, white onions, a salted red egg, and more of those crab sticks...




A simple balsalmic and olive oil dressing and it's good to go. Yup, my doctor's really gonna love me now...

    Considering it's a 'what's in the fridge' dish, I'd call that a brilliant meal!

    That's a good-looking salad...I am also trying to do better with using what's in the fridge.

    The crab sticks are so great to keep around. It's fun to see that both your fridge raids led to salad. You must eat fairly healthy. That looks like a gread salad to add to any meal, too.

    I love healthy fixes like these too! Awesome!:)
    This is superb; you should keep some sweet corn, cherry tomatoes, carrots, and raisins, make some tasty snacks too ;)

    Hi how u doing?
    I am huge fan of crab sticks since I had discovered them in france. They recently brought them to austria, unluckily India isnt importing or producing them yet.
    They are the bst in salad as u did with some simple dressing. they got lots of flavoure.
