Notes…
When making a salad you can always add in any extra vegetables of your choosing.
I used 2 large chicken breasts, each one weighed approx 10 ounces raw, this made enough to top 4 salads, if your chicken breasts are smaller then you might want to use more than 2.
If you are making this for meal prep then I suggest dicing up all the vegetables but not mixing them together until you are ready to serve it.
You can make the dressing up and leave in the fridge, just shake well before using it. Add the feta cheese once you have added the dressing and are ready to serve.
The chicken can be cut and stored in the fridge for easy use, you can also make extra and freeze it for easy meal prep for later days.

Absolutely delicious!! Thank you for an easy, filling dinner recipe.
You are very welcome, so glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
I meal prepped this for lunches this week. It’s been so yummy! I chopped all the vegetables and kept them in separate bowls and portioned it out the night before and kept the dressing separate until ready to serve! I omit the avocados and feta to reduce the caloroies and added kalamata olives. YUM!
Glad you enjoyed it, perfect for lunches 🙂
