 Mrs. Winston's Green Grocery is REALLY "LA's Best Salad Bar"  ...sorry Whole Foods lovers:)  It's the perfect healthy take-away place with 3 locations situated around business parks on the West Side.  The salad bar is located inside a  small natural food "snack" store and has virtually the same selection at each location.  The BEST thing about the Salad bar is they CLEARLY mark "Vegan" & "OIL FREE" items.  Plus, it's not all about Salad..I always build my own sandwich!!  With about 6 different vegan breads to choose from and a plethora of fresh veggies, legumes, and oil free hummus... Heavenly:D   They also have a few pre-made oil free pasta & beans salads but noting compares to the Rock'n "build your own" salad selection w/ fat free dressings.   



Price: You pay buy Weight, so be cognizant of  your unnecessary water weight.  For example, try to strain the extra water from mixed salads, salsas, beans..ext.  I didn't last time...Lex's was $7.50 & Mine $12.75 for the exact same thing..YIKES!  Dessert??:  You MUST try the fat-free Rice Crispy Treat from HeavenScent!!

Aw Mrs. Winston's! I use to go there everyday when I went to school across the street. They're so wonderful to vegans :-)

we went there today and had an awesome meal, although there weren't any "special" oil-free items. no oil-free pasta, hummus or salad dressings. :( we filled up on vegetables and beans though...finished off w/ some bragg's to moisten it up.

LOVE this place!
