BBQ Chicken Salad
Large, fresh and totally an entree type dish, our delicious BBQ Chicken Salad is full of flavor and texture! We paired our salad with a bbq ranch dressing that's made a little healthier by using yogurt instead of mayo and/or sour cream! It can feed a bunch of people and takes only 30 minutes to throw together!
I love a big entree salad and our BBQ Chicken Salad recipe is a sure favorite! I love that this salad is packed with so many fresh ingredients that come together and always hits the spot. This is probably one of my favorite summer salads (that I totally eat year round)!
I also love that so much of this salad can be prepped ahead of time, so it takes just a few minutes to throw everything together when you’re ready to enjoy it!
