Strawberry Salad....


Tis the season for yummy salads.... so here we go with a few of my favorites! They can be used as a side dish (just leave out the chicken) or they can be served as a whole meal- you choose!

Ingredients:
2 hearts of romaine
1/4 cup parsley, chopped
1/2 cup candied pecans, chopped
8- 10 strawberries, sliced
1/4 cup feta (or blue) cheese, sprinkled on top
1/2 cooked chicken breast (per person), chopped
*avocado optional (if you're a lover of it!)

Directions:
Grill up some chicken, lightly seasoned, or use leftovers if you have some. Like always, wash, chop, and chill your lettuce. Chop your parsley, nuts, and chicken. Slice your strawberries right before serving, add your cheese and dressing and toss! I have also added avocado to the mix and it was very tasty! 

For a great dressing, see my recipe for "Refreshing Dressing" or use Brianna's dressing with a Strawberry on the Bottle. For those of you local to Bakersfield, this is a knock off of my favorite salad at Cafe Meds!
