Perfect Summer salad packed with fruit, healthy fat, protein and lots of flavor!
RECIPE:
6 cups spring mix
2 pears I used Red Anjou and Green Bartlett, sliced or chopped
12oz grilled chicken breast
2 slices of cooked turkey bacon
1/4 cup goat cheese crumbles
2 Tablespoons dried cranberries
2 Tablespoons chopped walnuts raw or toasted
1/2 avocado sliced or chopped into chunks
Maple Balsamic Dressing
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar I used white
1/4 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon sugar free maple syrup
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
1 teaspoon minced garlic
½ teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Prepare bacon + chicken: Cook turkey bacon and grill chicken if you haven't already. See notes.
Make dressing: Prepare dressing by whisking together all ingredients in a small bowl or jar. I like using a jar with a lid for this so you can easily store any leftover dressing in the fridge in that same jar.
Prep salad: Grab two bowls and add a base of spring mix, pear slices, grilled chicken breast, bacon, goat cheese, dried cranberries, walnuts and avocado.
Serve: Drizzle salad with desired amount of balsamic dressing and enjoy!
