It’s so easy to overindulge over the holidays. There’s just too many yummy treats and savory dishes to tempt us! I’m totally guilty of it, and as a result, my waistline has suffered. I’m excited to get back on track in the new year and start eating healthy again. I always feel so much better when I eat a clean diet filled with fresh fruit and vegetables, whole grains and lean meat.
I’ve found that one of the easiest ways to incorporate vegetables, and even protein, into your diet is to eat a big salad every day. I usually make mine with mixed greens, chicken, and other toppings like cucumbers, tomatoes and onions. I’ve been wanting to branch out and try new some new recipes and this Mediterranean Chicken Salad does not disappoint!
This Mediterranean Chicken Salad is delicious and packed full of flavor. It’s also super easy to make! All you need is Tyson® Grilled & Ready Chicken Breast Strips, mixed greens/spring mix salad, chickpeas (garbanzo beans), cooked quinoa (I use a boxed quinoa & brown rice blend), hummus, crumbled feta cheese, cherry tomatoes, red onion and Greek or Balsamic Vinaigrette dressing.
The key to this recipe being so simple is using Tyson® Grilled & Ready Chicken Breast Strips. The strips are fully cooked, so all you have to do is warm them up in the microwave or a pan and then add them to your salad. They are a great source of protein and I love how easy they are to prepare. They make meal prep a cinch, which is helpful when you are trying to stay track with your health and fitness goals.
This salad is great for lunch on the go or busy weeknights when you don’t have time to cook. Unlike other salads, this one will leave you feeling full and satisfied. The nice thing is you can prepare it ahead of time — just leave off the hummus and dressing and refrigerate until you are ready to eat.
