Congratulations! You can check fibers off the list. You can also check fats off the list if you like the dressing (it contains fats), or you can add some nuts for an extra boost. Now let's move on to protein.
You can cut your protein of choice into strips or little cubes, whichever butters your toast. Don't forget to add seasoning for extra flavor! Opt for fresh herbs for best results.
If you'd like to balance out the sweet with some savory, you can add some salted bacon, cheese, fresh bell peppers, or fresh onions.
On the astringent or bitter side of the taste scale, look out for these ingredients:
If you'd like to balance those out, you can add shrimps, cherry tomatoes, grilled salmon or steak, mozzarella cheese, prosciutto, dried tomatoes, rotisserie chicken, and lentils, or any other sweet ingredient from the previous list.

While homemade, homegrown, and fresh produce is the best choice, we know that it's a privilege only a few can afford. Don't hesitate to use canned beans, bought chicken rotisserie or any dried, bought herbs. We mentioned how you should always enjoy eating your meal, and that is also true to the process of preparing it.
