Dry with pickled onions and some chicken.
I absolutely hate salads, but that is what I ate 5 days a week when I worked for a chain of bike shops. It's how I lost my last bit of weight to get under 7% back when I was racing. Going from 350lbs to 220lbs wasn't super hard while just commuting to work, and training/racing casually. Going from 220lbs to under 190lbs was super hard for me. Eating something I could barely tolerate meant I only ate what I absolutely needed because I was freaking starving... So, to me, while I hate salads, if I'm eating one, it is for a specific reason, and if I'm objective about that reason, I'm going to fit my opinion to what best meets those goals. Therefore, my favorite salad is the one I can only barely tolerate and will eat, but only as much as I absolutely must. Like seriously, I brought my lunch into my office and would eat a few bites over the course of hours. That too is a major aspect of real weight loss. How much you eat at any given point in time is very important.
