Lunch or Dinner Salad
- 1 cup romaine lettuce, for crispness
- 1 cup mixed spring greens or 1 cup young greens
- 1 diced cooked chicken breast half
- 34 cup tomatoes
- 14 cup nuts
- 14 cup dried fruit
- balsamic vinaigrette
- Mix everything together it's done!
- Change the proportions to suit your individual taste.
- I've used walnuts, pecans or cashews as the nuts, and raisins (slightly too sweet for my taste) or dried cranberries (which work better for me) as the dried fruits.
- I don't see any reason why this wouldn't work with any meat, and it's worked for me with leftover steak quite nicely.
- Use whatever tomatoes you have on hand, but they've got to have some flavor.
- Cherry tomatoes work very well because they don't make the salad to "juicy."
- If you're using whole tomatoes you might want to seed them.
- My husband likes this so well that he's asked for it 3 times in the last 2 weeks.
