When it comes to eating dinner my man is kind of a manly man. He likes “real food” like you’d see on the box of a Hungry Man dinner (Ewwww)! He likes to feel full and satisfied after one of his 12 hour work days and believe it or not, this pretty Spring salad with high protein ingredients like chicken, avocados, cheese and pecans is one that satisfies.
Ingredients
- Salad:
- 6 C. fresh baby spinach
- 2 large cooked chicken breasts, cubed
- 1 pint strawberries, sliced
- 1-2 avocados, cubed
- 4 oz. crumbled gorgonzola or blue cheese
- 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 c. pecans, toasted and chopped
- Poppyseed Dressing:
- 1/2 cup avocado oil (or olive oil)
- 3 T. apple cider vinegar
- 2 T. honey
- 1 T. poppy seeds
- pinch of ground mustard
- 1/2 t. salt
- 1/4 t. pepper
Instructions
- Toss all salad ingredients together.
- Whisk dressing ingredients together, pour desired amount over salad, and toss until combined.
- Serve immediately.
We love eating lighter during the Spring and Summer months and hope that you’ll enjoy this recipe as much as we do!
