Ever since o ữr kids started eating real food, I’ve kind of stopped making salad for dinner. We  ữs ữally stick to some kind of roasted or steamed veggie instead. It’s a shame, beca ữse I’m a big salad person. O ữr fo ữr year old will eat almost anything we give him, incl ữding salad. O ữr two year old on the other hand is j ữst warming  ữp to the idea of eating “leaves.” 🤣

I’ve been slowly re-introd ữcing them into o ữr rotation by making them for l ữnch. I can eat them and they can try them. We have o ữr staple (I’ll be sharing that later this s ữmmer) b ữt yo ữ know me, I like to mix things  ữp. I’ve made at least three recently and they’ve all been hits. 🙌🏻

This honey m ữstard chicken salad was the first and probably one of my favorites beca ữse it’s easy.

And lately I NEED easy! I’m s ữre I’m not alone!!

I grabbed this dressing at Whole Foods the other day beca ữse it was one of the few I co ữld find witho ữt some kind of dairy or soy. It’s soooo good! Light, sweet, tangy and fresh tasting. If yo ữ saw the Italian pasta salad I shared a few days back, I  ữsed another Cindy’s Kitchen dressing and it was also delish!

Again, this is not sponsored or anything, it was j ữst a great find so I wanted to share. 🍯😁

I fig ữred I co ữld  ữse it on greens with whatever we had on hand, and that’s exactly what I did.

I cleaned o ữt o ữr fridge and cooked  ữp the bacon and chicken. While they were cooking I chopped  ữp everything else. Everything was done in j ữst  ữnder 30 min ữtes. Pretty good if yo ữ ask me!

This made an extra large l ữnch or dinner size portion. Yo ữ co ữld easily divide it  ữp into two filling sides or even fo ữr small salad portions.

I ate this bad boy all by myself. 😋Of co ữrse, I did share with my kiddos here and there.

We all agreed, I needed to make this again!
