Ingredients
Chicken Strawberry Salad
- 4 cups ripped lettuce packed
- 4 cups grilled chicken sliced
- 2 cups sliced strawberries
- 1 cup sliced red onion
- 1/2 cup feta cheese
- 1/4 cup tablespoons pecans
Honey Dijon Vinaigrette
- 1/4 cup dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup greek yogurt
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoons poppy seeds
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
Instructions
- Add all the salad ingredients into a bowl, toss with the honey dijon dressing (adding a little at a time). I recommend adding 1/3 cup and then adding a bit more a tablespoon at a time. Refrigerate the leftover dressing.
For the dressing
- Add all the ingredients into a bowl and whisk together. This makes a lot of salad dressing and there will be leftovers.
Notes
I recommend marinating the chicken breast before grilling. I rubbed the chicken with salt, pepper, and garlic powder and then drizzle some balsamic vinegar over them. Let it sit for 20 minutes, then grilled.
