Hey everybody! Guess who's back from the dead? This girl. Between work, a wedding, and school, life has been super busy so it's been hard to post anything. Anyway, enough about me. I have a brilliant tip for you.

I don't know how many of my darling readers have a Cafe Rio in their area, but if you do, this is for you!
If you're like me, I love love love their pork salads. My only problem is that I have left over dressing at the end because they give so much. I don't like throwing it away because it's so delicious and having Cafe Rio is a treat (married and broke right here folks!), so I saved it. It lasts quite a long time, which was a relief because when this idea sparked, I just had to try it.

Your ingredients are simple: bread, Cafe Rio dressing, and whatever you want on your sandwich! I personally stick with the simple turkey tomato and lettuce combo, but not everyone's the same.

What's the tip? Use your dressing instead of mayonnaise! It brings to much flavor to the sandwich, and you don't have to load layers of it onto your bread to make it noticeable. Less fat, more flavor. I understand this isn't ground-breaking news in the culinary world, but try it! You'll thank me later.
