We love to eat out. What can I say? I work long hours every day, 5 days a week and sometimes you just can’t talk yourself into cooking.
One of our favorite restaurants in Henderson is Bella Vita in the District. The ambience is really nice and we love to sit outside when the weather is nice and listen to the music. They almost always have someone playing or singing. Sitting beneath the olive trees and watching the shoppers pass by is an excellent way to spend the afternoon or evening on one of our mild spring, fall, or early summer days.
When I’m trying to eat somewhat healthy there, I always choose the Burrata salad which is made with arugula, beef steak tomatoes, the most luscious burrata mozzarella cheese and drizzled with Balsamic and a light citrus dressing. I always ask them to add some grilled chicken breast as well to round out the meal.
I’m guessing this is about 10 points using the Weight Watchers Smart Point system. This is one of the reasons I love Weight Watchers. I can live a normal life and eat well with a little planning and thought. You may think that is a lot of points for a salad, but just wait until that wonderful Burrata cheese hits your palate. You will be thanking me!
