Summer Salad Ideas

One of my favorite salads that I have made is really simple.

1) One cooked chicken breast diced, you can switch it up and add steak. ( Calorie information would change)

2) 1 Cup of strawberries

3) 1/2 Cup of blueberries

4) 2 cups of butter lettuce

5) Ken’s Steak House Lite Strawberry Vinaigrette

You can do

Steak, chicken, shrimp

Butter lettuce, iceberg lettuce, spinach, ( there are so many choices)

Apples, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, pineapples, oranges.

Almonds, walnuts, and eggs

You can make your on vinaigrette or you can find some in the aisle of your grocery store.  Don’t put so much thought into making a salad, its a simple and healthy lunch or dinner. Throw things that you love on there and enjoy, but of course portion your food.
