INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 cup Baby Spinach
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Basil, Parsley, Dill)
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside to cool.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a pinch of your favorite herbs. Grill or pan-sear the chicken over medium heat until fully cooked, about 6-7 minutes per side. Allow it to rest, then slice into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, combine the nonfat Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, and finely chopped fresh herbs. Stir to create a creamy dressing.
In a large mixing bowl, toss together the cooled pasta, sliced chicken, cherry tomatoes, and baby spinach.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until all ingredients are evenly coated.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for later to let the flavors meld. Enjoy a balanced and refreshing meal!
