This is my new favorite recipe. Hands down. It's fresh, crunchy, creamy, avocado-ey, and just the right amount of spicy! It's a perfect springtime/summer macro-friendly chicken salad recipe made of just 5 simple ingredients! Have fun tricking your taste buds! <3

CREAMY CHIPOTLE AVOCADO CHICKEN SALAD
204kcal -- 4F / 9C / 33P

Ingredients:
- 85g broccoli slaw
- 5.5 oz grilled chicken breast
- Ms. Dash southwest chipotle seasoning blend
- 30g Bolthouse Farms cilantro avocado yogurt dressing
- 30g salsa
- lime juice, garlic salt, 0 cal spray butter (optional)
Directions:
1. Spray a pan with some pam and place on stovetop w/ medium heat.
2. Place broccoli slaw into pan and add Ms. Dash southwest chipotle seasoning blend. Once slaw has cooked for about a minute add the COOKED/grilled chicken to heat it up. Add any other optional spices you'd like (I like garlic salt, 0 cal butter spray, and a little lime juice).
3. Let cook until all is heated and broccoli slaw is still a bit crunchy but not totally "raw" tasting. Add Bolthouse dressing and let heat for about 1 minute.
4. Place contents of pan into a bowl, add salsa on top, and ENJOY!

Salad is flexible and may also be an appetizer, a lunch, a snack or a dinner. If you're going to serve salad as an entree, it will have to be enjoyable and filling ample. Lettuce leaves are a excellent garnish but they don't have a tendency to satisfy a hungry person very much! When you experience grilled fowl recipes, what about making a grilled hen salad for dinner

Is your chicken - 5.5 oz raw? I'm just having a hard time coming up with the macros listed for the entire recipe: 204kcal -- 4F / 9C / 33P.

I come up with 5.5 oz of chicken is 4.7 F | 0 C | 41 P
- 218 calories - and that's for the chicken only.

Then adding...
Broccoli slaw adds 0 F | 5 C | 2 P
Dressing adds: 3.5 F | 1 C | 1 P

This looks like a great recipe. Thanks in advance for the macros clarification!

this was awesome! i had it for lunch and dinner today and am having it again tomorrow!
i did try subbing the rice for the slaw bc i needed more carbs for dinner, but it wasn't nearly as good.

What is broccoli slaw? Just broccoli and cabbage?
