HIGH PROTEIN CUCUMBER CHICKEN AVOCADO SALAD

Next time you’re craving a light but filling high protein lunch, try this salad. There is a little bit of everything in each bite and its so good.

I used grilled chicken + greek yogurt as the main base for the dressing and this delivers 37g of protein a serving. Makes 2 servings.

Here is how I made it:

1. Thinly slice or dice 3-4 Persian cucumbers. Add them to a mason jar or salad bowl.

2. Finely dice 1.5 cups of broccoli florets into small broccoli snowflakes – the texture is perfect, trust me.

3. Finely chop a large handful of fresh herbs (parsley, cilantro, or mint would work best here) … you’ll want about 3 tablespoons of finely chopped herbs here, and finely dice small shallot or 1/4 red onion (optional).

4. Cube up 1 small avocado into chunks and add to the rest.

5. Lastly, for the protein, I cubed up some leftover grilled chicken (about 7oz), but you can use rotisserie chicken or shrimp here, too.

6. For the dressing, add 2 tablespoons greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon dijon mustard, 2 tsp good olive oil, the zest and juice of a large lemon, pinch of salt and pepper, 1/2 tsp dried oregano, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp Aleppo pepper or chili flakes. Mix well and add it to the salad bowl.

Put the lid on and give it a shakey shake (or toss if in a bow!) and enjoy.

If you try it, let me know on SHREDHAPPENS.

ENJOY.
