I ordered the club salad – chopped – and loved it! Did you guys know Subway makes chopped salads? I know I am probably way behind the times since I don’t go to Subway very often, but I was super psyched when Ryan and I went to Subway after our visit to the Giraffe Ranch back in May and they chopped my salad.
I adore chopped salads because it’s so much easier taste all of your salad toppings in one bite! Yesss.
After lunch at Subway, I drove home to hang with Sadie and work on blog stuff.
My salad, while delicious, didn’t hold me over very well, so about 30 minutes after I walked in the door, I rounded out my lunch with a handful of almonds and a small bowl of frozen blueberries that I quickly thawed in the microwave and cottage cheese.
Satisfied!
I have to rush off to take a conference call right now, but I’ll be back to chat again in the morning. Enjoy your night, my friends!
Question of the Afternoon
- What foods do you crave in the summer?
In the summer, I can’t get enough fresh fruit. I’ve been eating two apples a day and lots of strawberries lately, so they’re my current favorites! Summertime also makes me crave grilled veggies, ice cream and smoothies. Yum!
Jean says
I love refreshing fruits in the summer, like pineapple and watermelon! So delicious. And nothing quenches my thirst better than a nice cold pint of light beer. 🙂
Beth says
I am with you, Julie. Summer makes me CRAVE salads chopped full of fruit and veggies + grilled chicken. I also use my blender nearly every single morning in the summer to make a smoothie or protein shake. I would live off of summer fruits/veggies if I didn’t need the protein.
Julie says
I love fruit in the summer. I just had yellow watermelon for the first time and it was so sweet and delicious!
Holly @ EatGreatBEGreat says
That’s so cool…I had not idea Subway sold salads! During the summer I also crave fresh fruit (strawberries, watermelon, peaches, etc) and definitely smoothies!
Kristen @ notsodomesticated says
Ice cream, ice cream, ice cream … oh, and fruit. 😉
courtstar @ starsystemz says
I love your doggie so cute! I eat so much fruit during the summer its crazy 🙂 thanks for sharing love + shine Courtstar
GiGi Eats Celebrities says
Sashimi! I definitely crave sashimi in the summer. I mean, I love it year round, but it’s just so light and refreshing and I don’t SWEAT when I am eating it! Ah ha ha! 😉
Danica @ It's Progression says
I crave smoothies allll the time during the summer – they’re a common lunch or dinner around our house right now!
Sarah Whitney says
Fruits, veggies, and ice cream! I especially love going out for ice cream in the summer. And I love grilling chicken and veggies, too 🙂
Beth Sheridan (Sugar Coated Sheridan) says
I discovered Subway’s chopped salads about a month ago and I was equally impressed!
Amanda says
Grilled veggies & ice cream, definitely! I also love any fresh fruits or veggies that I’m able to pick up at my farmer’s market. They just taste so GOOD when they’re home-grown, rather than from the store.
Victoria @ Reluctantly Skinny says
summer makes me crave anything not hot! lots of smoothies, fresh fruit, crisp salads, and more smoothies!
Andrea @ Fit, Fab and Freckled says
I crave getting veggies from farmer’s markets and having them any way in the summer. Grilling with olive oil is probably my favorite – I love it when they get a little burnt! And…I am so jacked to hear that Subway does chopped salads! I haven’t been there in quite a while either, but have something to look forward to next time I go!
Katie @ SkinnyMinnieMoves says
I LOVE the fruit stand in the summer. Cherries, plums, honey dew! I love grilled corn and throwing some kabobs on the grill. Yum Yum
Lauren says
I always crave fruit. Berries, watermelon, honey dew…it’s all great! But I also always crave corn on the cob 🙂 I could eat that every day of the summer.
Sarah @ A Refining Adventure says
Mmmm…I LOVE summertime eats!!! Fresh fruits are where it’s at! I also love all the fresh veggies. Firing up the grill and smelling the smell of people around the neighborhood grilling out makes me so happy! I love anything FRESH. Winter foods get so boring.
Tara | Treble in the Kitchen says
Summertime definitely makes me crave lots and lots of smoothies, fresh veggies (zucchini!!), grilled veggies, and ice cream (of course!)
Katelyn says
I love fresh fruit in the summer too!! Juicy apples, watermellon and pinapples are my favorites right now! I also love to grill some fresh veggies to go with my dinner 🙂
Anna says
BEETS! Seriously. Something about the sweet, cold, refreshing taste. Yum.
And bud light 😉
Hope @ With A Side Of Hope says
I crave fruits and veggies. I cannot get enough of the summer produce 🙂
Danielle says
Do you only eat carbs once a day (if that) now?
Julie @ Peanut Butter Fingers says
Nope.
Brittany @ proteinandpumps says
LOVE Subway’s chopped salads. So so good and so convenient!
Bethany @ Accidental Intentions says
I am all about any sort of cold food in the summer, or at least foods that don’t require me turning on the oven/stove. And nothing makes me think of summer quite like fresh berries!
Sarah Smith @ Life {R+S} says
That salad looks SO good!!
I’m wondering, do you buy frozen blueberries or do you freeze fresh blueberries?! Just curious! Have a great day!
-Sarah
Julie @ Peanut Butter Fingers says
I buy frozen!
Claire @ Health Nut Claire says
I love Subway’s chopped salads! With a little balsamic and sweet onion sauce…delicious!
Jessica @ My Tasty Theatrical Life says
I am with you – I am all about fruit in the summer. I cannot get enough Watermelon, Fresh Berries & especially Cherries!! Holy yum!! I also love BBQ, although you can enjoy that year round 😛
allie says
I crave fresh fruit all summer long. At least 1 watermelon is needed a day, and I LOVEEE purple grapes dunked in large amounts of pb. Fresh strawberries are great too 🙂
Maureen says
The very first time I ordered a chopped salad at Subway, the guy behind the counter asked if I wanted lettuce. I almost couldn’t finish ordering…I was trying SO hard not to laugh! I guess I thought that was kind of a given…
But credit to him for being thorough I guess 🙂
Justin says
mmmm chopped salads is one of my favorites and a green smootie 🙂 low fat and will keep you going for hours!
Primož says
I love to eat Greek salad or tomato or cucumber salad in the summer. Also lots and lots of water.
