Colorful Chicken Salad

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!

Every new year one of the things that I resolve to do is eat healthy, by adding more vegetables and fruits to my diet. This year is no different and I have decided to consume more salads to up the health quotient. This 2019 I wish all of you healthy food, lots of physical activity and stress free lives..... who am I kidding (eye roll- that's boring).

This new year I wish for you lots of happy times with loved ones that will turn into happy memories, more travelling and experiencing life, enjoying simple things in life and great food that turns even a dull day into a special one. 

On that note, let me share this super easy and quick salad that looks appealing, tastes great and is simply colourful.

Ingredients:
  1. Iceberg lettuce - 1 medium sized head
  2. Cucumber - 1 large, diced in cubes
  3. Tomatoes - 1 large, deseeded and cubed
  4. Red, Yellow & Green pepper - 1 each, medium, deseeded and cubed                                     (You may either choose one or add all three, its optional)
  5. Boneless Chicken - 1 cup cooked and shredded/ cubed
  6. Salt & Pepper - To taste
  7. Honey Mustard Sauce - 2 - 3 tbsp or as needed
Method:
  1. In a salad bowl, tear the lettuce leaves into bite sized pieces and add all veggies.
  2. Next add the seasoning and the sauce.
  3. Mix the salad well so the sauce and seasoning coats all the vegetables. You can do this with a Use two large spoons to mix the ingredients well or you could also use your hands to ensure all the leaves are coated.
  4. Your cucumber chicken salad is ready to be served.
Note: Add the seasoning and sauce ten minutes before serving time.
