Recession Lunching

This salad is from the salad bar at the Courtyard Cafe in the Century City mall, and it costs exactly half of what I would spend on a salad from Mrs. Winston's. I've eaten there about five or six times already this year, so that's $30 saved - not bad. It's tasty, too, but the selection is pretty limited, so I'm basically getting the same thing every time. Plus most their salads are pre-mixed, with the dressings that must be major fat-bombs (Chinese chicken salad, Caesar salad, broccoli salad w/ bacon...). And it's not organic either. But hey, you can't argue with a $4.99 per pound salad bar...
