{We are still focusing on Real, Whole Foods this week! My family will indulge in several of our very favorite holiday treats...but meals are kept clean, bright, and nutritious}

Makes 2-3 servings

Ingredients:

1 large bunch of green lettuce or spinach , stems removed, and finely chopped

1 avocado, diced

1/2 cup sliced cherry tomatoes

1/4 cup fresh parmesan, grated

2 chicken breasts, cut on the length to get 4 chicken fillets

2 tsp avocado, or olive oil

1 tsp dried oregano

1 tsp chili flakes

sea salt and pepper to taste (abt 1/2 tsp each)

For the dressing:

4 Tbsps avocado/olive oil

2 Tbsps Dijon mustard

2 Tbsps raw organic honey

2 Tbsps Balsamic vinegar

1 garlic clove, finely minced

Instructions:

In a bowl, combine the chicken with the oil, sea salt, pepper, dried oregano, chili flakes, toss to get all the pieces coated.

Heat a skillet over medium heat, and add the chicken. Pan fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until the chicken is cooked through and tender. Transfer to a chopping board, and cover it with foil until you’re ready with the rest of the salad.

Meanwhile, prepare the dressing by whisking all the ingredients in a small glass bowl.

Slice the chicken and place it a large bowl together with the chopped greens, avocado, tomatoes, and parmesan.

When you are ready to serve stir in the dressing and mix well.
