Happy Monday!! I am someone who actually loves a good Monday start. The weekends seem super chaotic and my house is always a mess! We have had a full house the last week with my sister in law staying a couple nights followed by my sweet sister, Grace! We also were hit with a "massive" snow storm - although, these NYC storms are a little weak compared to back home in Utah. Since we are on a health binge during the weeks , I'm happy to finally post this recipe! I try to cook low carb meals for dinner during the week - weekends are another story! 

One of my favorite comfort meals is a good BBQ chicken salad, so enjoy this "healthy" version.


Ingredients: 
  • 1 cup of Rotisserie chicken
  • 1 cucumber cut into small halves
  • 1/2 large tomato
  • 2 corn on the cobb or 1 cup of cooked corn
  • 1/2 can of black beans
  • 1/2 a chopped onion (I didn't use because I'm not a big onion fan)
  • 1 Avocado
  • 6 cups of Romaine chopped
  • 1/4 cup of BBQ sauce (make sure it's GF)
  • 1/2 cup of Greek Yogurt Ranch or any Lite Ranch
  • 1/2 of shredded Monterey Jack Cheese
  • Tortilla chips (optional - if you're feeling naughty)

Cook the corn first. I cooked my corn in the oven at 450 degrees. Wrap the corn in aluminum foil and put on a tray and cook for 20-25 minutes while you are prepping the salad.

Chop up the romaine and fill in a large bowl. Cut the chicken up and add one cup (or more if you want) into a separate bowl. Add the bbq sauce and toss. Cut the cucumber, onion, avocado and tomato and add to the lettuce.  Add the beans. 

When the corn is done, use a knife and cut the sides of the corn to add to the salad. 

Once everything is together, add the chicken and then the ranch. Add cheese  and toss. 

I served with a side of Brazilian cheese bread Pao De Queijo

BBQ Chicken salad is full of nutrition and minerals and raw material.We are the people should take such type of food recipe in our dining table.I will try to make such type of recipe at home in front of the coming Christmas day.
