Re: Rate my salad

Olives have a lot of fat, but they are definitely yummy. You'd probably actually be a little better off with some dressing, as protein needs fat to digest properly.

The avocados are my source of fat. They are pretty high in fat as well. The chick peas and chicken are my protein.

I like the chickpeas; they're great in salads. Chicken, avocados, chick peas, and olives are a little heavy, and I'd like something else besides the cucumber to raise the water content of the salad -- like green beans or tomatoes or both.
Also, some sprouts in that salad would be great.

Love the suggestions, I might add green beans or sprouts and maybe take away the olives.
Any ideas what kind of calorie level this is? I get this from a deli here in NYC so I can't measure anything. They use a scoop (ice cream scoop I guess) of chick peas, 1/2 an avocado, about 4-6oz of chicken and an ice cream scoop of olives.
Thanks!
