It sounds a little redundant, but I think that is the best name for it. Here is an easy way to take something delicious (but not exactly that healthy) and make it a little better and substantial.
Ingredients
Chicken Salad
4 cups cooked chicken (or make it easy with a rotisserie)
2 cups cooked brown rice
1-2 cups grapes
1 1/2 cups diced celery
2 cups fresh pineapple, cut into bite-sized pieces
Dressing
2 Tbsp. orange juice
1 tsp. salt
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup low-fat Greek yogurt
Base for salad
crunchy greens- like romaine, torn or chopped
lots of red bell pepper, diced or Julienne
1 cup slivered almonds
Directions
1. Prepare the chicken salad by combining chicken through pineapple in a large bowl. In a small bowl, prepare dressing and when combined add to large bowl.
2. Just prior to serving, layer the green salad with the chicken salad- adding almonds on top for extra crunch. Garnish with green onion or parsley, if desired.
