Tried making this chicken salad and turned out exceptionally great so I’m sharing it with all y’all (serves two). Also, it’s super healthy so perfect if you’re dieting (the “I wanna have a healthy heart” diet, not the “I’m starving myself to get skinny” diet).

Ingredients:
Protein: 1 cooked chicken breast (substitute with tofu if you’re vegetarian)
Main ingredients: Mixed Salad, Goat cheese, green onions, grape tomatoes, honey, nuts (pecan & cashews), and olives.
Salad sauce: Olive oil, half a lemon, vinegar

chicken 1. Get a large cooked chicken breast (de-skinned), seasoned the way you like (I like BBQ personally) and shred it up into tiny pieces.
Salad 2. Place your salad mix in a large bowl, preferably with spinach, kale, dandelion greens, and other nutritious leafy greens. Add grape tomatoes and green onions. Mix it up with one teaspoon of olive oil, and add the juices from half a lemon, and about a spoon of vinegar.
Goat Cheese 3. Top it up with about half a cup of olive slices, and a quarter cup of your favorite goat cheese (my favorite is Chevrai, but you can easily substitute it with Feta cheese).
pecans 4. Mix it all up really good, then top it up with some nuts like cashews and half pecans and drizzle with honey. If you prefer, add a dash of fresh black pepper and mediterranean sea salts to taste, et voila!

Bon apetite!
