Bacon, Grape & Broccoli Chicken Salad Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 or 3 heads of broccoli, depending on their size
- 1 lb. organic chicken breast cooked and chopped
- 1 1/2 cup red or green grapes halved
- 1 handful of mint leaves minced
- 10 slices organic bacon; or turkey bacon
- 6 tbsp avocado oil mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup lemon juice.
- salt/pepper to taste
- 1⁄2 cup raw walnuts, chopped
Directions
1) Cook the chicken, at 375, 30 min, let it cool then dice it.
2) Place the slices of bacon in a large pan on medium heat and cook for about 8 minutes on each side until crispy.
3) While the bacon cooks, cut the broccoli in small florets. You can use the stalks as well, making sure to cut it in pieces about the same size as the florets. I like to make the florets as small as possible. Put into a large mixing bowl.
4) Peel and dice cucumber. Add to the broccoli.
5) Mix the veggies with chopped bacon, mint, lemon juice, mayo, chicken and halved grapes add salt and pepper to taste.
6) Garnish with nuts, split into 4 food prep containers.
