Salsa slaw


Salsa Slaw

this is something we make quite often it accompanies fish are crab cakes very well.
1 bag coleslaw mix(calories 25 fat 0 protein 1.5)
Kraft coleslaw salad dressing(110 calories per serving)
Pico de Gallo( calories 2.5 fat and protein 0)

i just poor the bag of coleslaw mix in bowl then add a small amount of salad dressing really any kind i can find they make reduce fat but the small amount i use i don't stress about it. then i use fresh Pico de Gallo, if i can get this kind from Walmart produce i do or make my own let if chill for a bit. 
we really like the little spicy taste it adds and the tomatoes are good taste for cleansing the pallet from the fish or grab....

Hummus


You might say,  "what does hummus have to do with potato salad?"
Well my answer is, "The same as it does with deviled eggs."

OK let me explain.

in making my potato salad tonight i did every thing as usual with the exception i cut my light mayo in half and added my favorite flavor of hummus. 

now with deviled eggs take out half the yellow and mayo and replace with hummus.

light mayo has 49 calories, .13 grams of protein and 4.9 grams of fat.
hummus has 27 calories, .73 grams of protein and1.29 grams of fat.

not to mention. a flavored hummus can add a great hint of flavor to your food.....
