    Healthy House Salad

    Hi Everyone!

    Today’s post is a recipe for one of my favorite salads. It reminds me of the famous Olive Garden House Salad. The ingredients are listed below for two servings of salad.

    Ingredients

    1 Head Green Leaf Lettuce

    1 Cooked & Shredded Chicken Breast

    ½ Red Onion Diced

    ¼ Cup of Cherry or Roma Tomatoes Cut in Half

    Croutons

    1 Tablespoon Olive Garden Italian Dressing

    1/4 Cup Parmesan Cheese 

    Directions

    1. Combine ingredients in a large mixing bowl. 
    2. Toss.
    3. Separate into two bowls.
    4. Enjoy!

    We love how simple this salad is. If you make it as above you can use it as a main course. If you want it as a side I would at least half the recipe and maybe not add chicken. I love to cook my chicken in my instant pot and shred it in my kitchenaid. This speeds up the process tremendously!

    Scrumptious Salad

    Hi Everyone!

    Today’s post is about my favorite salad of all time. This is my go-to salad! It reminds me of the Chipotle Glazed Pork Salad from Zuppas. The ingredients are listed below for one serving of salad.

    Ingredients

    1/3 Head Green Leaf Lettuce

    1/6 Package Pork Carnitas

    ¼ Can Sweet Corn

    ¼ Can Pinto Beans

    8 Croutons

    1/8 Red Onion

    10 Cherry Tomatoes

    ¼ Avocado

    1 Tablespoon Chipotle Ranch

    1 Tablespoon Barbeque Sauce

    1/8 Cup Cheddar Cheese

    Directions

    1. Heat up the meat in the microwave according to the directions on the box.
    2. Get two pans out and start heating your sweet corn and pinto beans on medium-low.
    3. When the meat is finished heating, remove from the packaging and place into the kitchen aid with 2 Tablespoons of Barbeque sauce, lock and mix at a three for one minute. If you do not have a kitchen aid, you can shred the meat and mix it with the sauce in a bowl.
    4. Next cut your head of lettuce.
    5. Next dice your red onion. (I keep a diced onion in a Ziploc baggie in my fridge).
    6. Next cut your cherry tomatoes in half.
    7. Next dice your avocado.
    8. Add the above amounts of ingredients into a large bowl and toss.
    9. When finished, drizzle your remaining barbeque sauce and chipotle ranch over the mixture.
    10. Enjoy!!

    I am obsessed with this salad. If you ask anyone who knows me well if I’ve always loved salads, they will tell you definitely not. I just recently got into eating salads within the last two years. I could seriously eat this one every day if I could!
