INGREDIENTS
1.25 oz grilled chicken breast (~35g)
1/4 cup cooked quinoa (~43g)
1/2 cup roasted mixed vegetables (~85g)
1 cup mixed greens (~30g)
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (~14g)
1/4 medium avocado (~50g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F for roasting the vegetables.
Chop your chosen vegetables (such as zucchini, bell pepper, and red onion) into bite-sized pieces. Toss them lightly with a portion of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast for about 15-20 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, season the chicken breast lightly with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs. Grill the chicken over medium-high heat until it is just cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Once done, slice into thin strips.
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked.
In a bowl, combine the mixed greens, quinoa, and roasted vegetables. Add the grilled chicken slices on top.
Drizzle the remaining olive oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the salad. Gently toss to combine all the flavors.
Top the salad with small cubes of avocado and serve immediately.
