Another Funky Salad

Still working on eating that bucket of organic spring mix lettuce.  This time I tried Shrimp Cobb Salad with Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette  once again from www.damndelicious.net .  This website is ending up being my go-to place for new recipes.


 I used Kraft's Italian Zesty Lime dressing as the base and added fresh cilantro and jalapeno pepper.  Whipped it all up in the Magic Bullet and voila - Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette.  This dressing was very good.  I didn't think I would like it because I am not a huge fan of cilantro but the lime and jalapeno seems to mellow out the cilantro flavour.

I really liked this salad with the exception of the boiled egg.  I have decided that I don't like boiled eggs in a lettuce salad!  Other than that, this recipe is a keeper.

Went to the gym 3 times this week.  My back has really been hurting for the last couple of weeks  - right behind my right shoulder blade.  It didn't hurt when I lifted weights or moved around but as soon as I laid down it hurt so bad that it took my breath away.  I went for massage therapy but my back muscles didn't hurt at all when she massaged them.  My shoulder and chest muscles hurt like a damn but not my back.

On Tuesday, I was using the weight machine to work my lats and I just let the weight stretch out my arms and back.  Seemed to do the trick!  I must have just had a nerve that was being pinched when my muscles moved a certain way.  That stretch released something.  Still hurts for a couple of seconds when I lay down on the bench to do chest presses but otherwise not too bad.
