Easy Peasy Chicken Salad!

I am on a quest to liven up my recipe list (and lunches). I found this chicken salad recipe as part of my current fitness program I am following and it couldn't be easier. I made this this weekend and now am enjoying it the rest of the week.

Ingredients:

3 Tbsp. low-fat (1%) Greek Yogurt

2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice (or lemon)

1 tsp. ground chili powder

1 tsp. raw honey

3 cups chopped, grilled chicken breast (boneless/skinless) 

- I baked this at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes instead of grilling. Season with salt/ pepper and chili powder as desired. 

1/2 medium red onion (diced)

1/2 cup raw pumpkin seeds (or sunflower seeds)

8 large Boston (or Bibb) lettuce leaves

2 cups fresh spinach

(Optional 1/4 cup of grapes and 1/4 cup diced tomatoes)

Directions:

1. If you haven't already cook and dice the chicken. 

2. Combine yogurt, lime juice, chili, powder and honey in a small bowl. This is the salad dressing.

3. Combine chicken, onion, spinach, pumpkin seeds and dressing. Toss gently until blended throughout. (Toss in optional grapes / tomatoes to preference). 

4. Serve on top of bibb lettuce. Makes 4 servings.

Enjoy!

p.s For those of you on the 21 Day Fix, it counts as 1 green, 1 red and 1 orange container. (Without the grapes and tomatoes).
