Mediterranean Chicken Salad
My Mediterranean Chicken Salad is a delicious, easily prepared meal that is full of vibrant, fresh flavours and health benefiting nutrients. It is a high protein, low-carb meal which is perfect for lunch or a light dinner.
You can customise this Mediterranean Chicken Salad to suit your taste. If you don’t have an ingredient, swap it for something you do have. Use baby spinach in place of the rocket/arugula, or, add celery or red pepper for crunch.
And if you happen to have some leftover rotisserie chicken, this is a great way to use it. Feel free to make this salad your own.
