The Salad Combo:
Begin with a simple base of either: lettuce, spinach or kale (whichever you prefer). Make sure to cut the base into small strips/chunks. For a single person, use about a cup or one handful of the chosen leafy vegetable.
Decide your dressing: Avocado or Greek Yogurt (I would use the yogurt mainly with spinach)
Avocado Dressing: Add tomatoes, cucumbers, onions—basically whatever veggies you like. Cut avocado in half and spoon out the avocado into a bowl, add veggies, and mix well. Add a pinch of salt and lemon for added taste. Note: for a single person, use only about ½ cup of additional veggies combine.

5 Grocery Shopping Tips for the Unpaid Intern in DC

- Choose a grocery store that fits your needs: Safeway and Giant are both easily accessible from the Debonair. I personally prefer the Safeway in Adams Morgan because it's only a 15 minute walk or you can take the Circulator, which costs $1 each way, while the Giant is either a 30 minute walk or two stops north on the metro and costs $2.50 each way. However, for people who like frozen meals or specific brand names, Giant is the better option. Either way, I recommend you choose the one that meets your needs and stick with it for the semester.
