Salads are an excellent choice for a healthy meal that can fill you up and give you the energy you need. The main ingredient, the "greens," have calcium, iron, potassium, and B vitamins all on their own. When paired with the savory ingredients that make up the salads on our Lake of the Ozarks waterfront restaurant menu, you get even more health benefits than that, making it a wise, and delicious, meal choice.
A few more wonderful things that your body gets from the many colorful and tasty ingredients in a Shorty Pants Lounge salad are fiber, antioxidants, and a healthy dose of protein. If you're watching your calories, tell your server to bring the dressing on the side so you can add it yourself. Some people might worry that they'll still be hungry if they only have a salad, but with the following options from our menu, that hunger will be more than satisfied.
