Chicken and Spring Greens with Açai Dressing

This salad is a model of nutrition. The greens and onion provide a variety of vitamins and minerals, the pecans add healthy fats, and the chicken is a great source of lean protein, all with less than 300 calories per serving. Açai dressing is rich in antioxidants, but so is any bottled berry dressing.

Pantry Checklist:
 

  • Mixed baby salad greens
  • Cooked chicken breast
  • Red onion
  • Toasted pecans
Prep: 6 minutes
