Directions

Looking for a use for that left over chicken breast? We cook up a batch each week to use in quick recipes like this delicious citrus salad. I used UDOs oil in the dressing, which is flax-based, pinto beans, and baby romaine lettuce. I divided the portions across four wide-mouth mason jars. Give it a shake before eating and enjoy!

Salad Ingredients

Divide all the ingredients, except the lettuce, evenly across four containers. I used wide-mouth mason jars. Pour over the salad dressing. Pack the remaining space in the container with your preferred lettuce (baby kale, arugula, romaine, field greens, etc.)
