Recipe Share - Salad Time!

Pinch of Yum is still one of my favorite food blogs. This time of year, I try to eat my weight in salad. I need all the help with light food and hydration I can get.

I was browsing looking for a recipe share (since it's been a while) and I found this one. This one is on my list for the weekend. So if you try it out before me, share how you like it!

Chicken and Nectarine Poppy Seed Salad

Author: Pinch of Yum Serves: 4

 

Ingredients

• 2 large chicken breasts (plus salt, pepper, olive oil for seasoning)
• 1 cup blueberries
• 2 ripe nectarines
• 6-8 cups baby spinach
• ¼ cup chopped toasted almonds
• homemade poppy seed dressing (or store-bought)

Instructions

1. Sprinkle the chicken with salt, pepper, olive oil, and any other seasonings you like. I happened to have a random raspberry chipotle seasoning blend in my cupboard, so I rubbed a little bit into the chicken breasts before grilling – it was SO good! Just use whatever seasonings you like and/or have on hand to give the chicken a little extra flavor.
2. Grill the chicken – I used my panini press to get those really nice browned lines. It worked like a charm. Chop the chicken into bite sized pieces or strips.
3. Assemble individual salads or toss all ingredients together in a large bowl. Top with poppy seed dressing.

Try it out. See what you think
