Course: Healthy Dishes, Salad
Cuisine: American
Servings: 1
- 1 ½ cup of baby arugula
- 1 ½ cup of baby spinach
- 2 tbsp Marzetti Simply Creamy Greek Tzatziki Dressing & Sauce
- 3-4 ounces of chopped chicken breasts grilled, roasted or baked
- 5 slices of fresh English cucumber
- ¼ c chopped mushrooms
- ½ hard-boiled eggs
- 3 tbsp chopped walnuts or pecans
- 3 tbsp shredded cheese
- 5 cherry tomatoes
Prep your ingredients. Wash and dry arugula and spinach—next, slice cucumbers, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, and hard-boiled eggs. Chop walnuts or pecans if needed.
If you don’t plan to use pre-cooked chicken, season chicken breasts with pepper and salt to taste (additional seasonings could include onion and garlic powder). Grill or pan-sear until fully cooked (165°F internal temperature). Let it rest for a few minutes before chopping.
In a large bowl, layer the arugula and spinach as the base. Evenly distribute chopped chicken, cucumbers, mushrooms, egg slices, nuts, shredded cheese, and cherry tomatoes over the greens.
Drizzle with Marzetti Simply Creamy Greek Tzatziki Dressing & Sauce. (or the dressing of your choice)
Gently toss the salad to coat everything evenly. If desired, garnish with avocado slices and freshly ground black pepper.
Serve immediately.
