Plum Chicken Salad
I ended up using red leaf lettuce since I wasn’t terribly keen on paying a premium for the rather wilted “organic” spring mix being offered at my grocery store. I’m sure anything would work, but it added some nice color and looked fancy. The sweet plums contrast very nicely with the tangy vinegar, while the celery gives a great textural crunch. The addition of some plum tomatoes and shredded parmesan was purely motivated by what I had in my fridge but worked anyway.
This turned out to be quite fast and easy since I had some left over grilled chicken from the week before. Turns out the chicken freezes just fine, so I’m learning to cook a bunch up at once to save me some time. Grilled chicken breast is a great choice since you can use it in so many things for a protein boost whenever you’re feeling like your veggies are a bit lack-luster.
