I think the phot...Definitely not hungry afterward. I think the photos are very misleading - under the salad and oranges was half of a very large ball of buffalo mozzarella. Then there was half an orange for both of us and the salad was wrapped in two pieces of speck for each of us. Additionally, I'm a firm believer that if you have food with interesting flavors, colors, and textures, and you eat it slowly and savor it, you'll find that you're satisfied much more than if you had a larger portion and wolfed it down. Lastly, we also had some slices of baguette with dipping oil that we munched on while I was trying to salvage the meal - so we had snacked a bit ahead of time. However, if we had guests over, I would have served this as a first course - we eat much lighter when it's "just us."<BR/><BR/>Nicole, my husband loves this sort of thing and never complains about portion size - I'm a lucky gal. Generally, after a light meal like this, he will have a small snack a couple hours later.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02237921600705834870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7918674200338298429.post-575286532624976812008-04-04T19:08:00.000-04:002008-04-04T19:08:00.000-04:00Well the salad looks amazing!
