Chicken & Sprout Veggie Salad

I’m so happy to introduce you to my friend Joyce from The Skinny Pear! She’s created an awesome, simple recipe for ya’ll to enjoy so I hope you pop over and visit her site to learn more about the deliciousness she shares there.

 

There is nothing better than a crisp, fresh chicken vegetable salad.  Summer is around the corner and it is salad season!

Recently I started to grow my own sprouts, you can check it out here.  I am loving that there is beautiful little green plants filled with goodness sitting on my counter.   Not only are sprouts beneficial health-wise, they are fantastic for getting kids involved in growing food.  My daughter thought it was great watching the seeds sprout and they are so easy to grow

Sprouts brighten up a meal, my hubs loves them on his sandwiches for work and says they add that extra little crunch the sandwiches are missing.  I wanted to create a salad that was different,  that didn’t necessarily have lettuce in it..Cue the sprouts!

Ingredients

Salad

  • 1 medium carrot

Instructions

  1. To make the dressing, simple combine all the dressing ingredients, whisk together and store in an air tight container.
