Tip of the Week: Want to eat healthy and oil-free at a restaurant? Order a salad and steamed vegetables, without dressing, and pack your own additional toppings and dressing in your purse or backpack. Sometimes restaurants will frown upon outside food, but if they can't accomadate your diet then you have no choice. I've done this lots of times and it's never been an issue. I typically pack tofu cubes and nuts/seeds and a little bottle of balsamic vinegar.
