Super Simple Chicken Salad
Not having time is no excuse for not eating healthy. Here is a super easy and quick recipe to make and very nutritious: A chicken salad...
I love this chicken salad because it is one of the easiest and most nutritious meals you can make in less than 10 minutes. I usually use leftover chicken and add whatever I find in the refrigerator or my kitchen pantry. One day you can make this recipe with a small cup of pasta, another day you can add quinoa, make it sweeter with some fruit or crunchy with nuts and seeds. Use boiled egg for a vegetarian salad or add salmon instead of chicken to get the benefits of consuming omega-3s. Do you want more vegetables? Add broccoli or green beans. Did I mention you can add avocado too? There are so many options, but here is the super simple chicken version. Ingredients for the chicken salad: * 120 g grilled chicken breast * 2 cups mixed salad leaves * 1 large tomato * ¼ red onion * 2 small potatoes (100 g) For the dressing: * ½ tablespoon olive oil * 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar * A little rosemary * 1 crushed garlic clove * Salt and pepper Preparation:
- Cut the roasted chicken into the grill.
- Cut the tomato into pieces.
- Finely cut the onion.
- Boil the potatoes and cut them into four, let them cool.
- For the dressing, beat all the ingredients.
- Place the mixed salad leaves in a bowl, add all the ingredients and drizzle with the dressing. Enjoy your chicken salad!
