Easy chicken taco salad
1 chicken breast boiled
2 ½ c of mixed salad greens (I like Express veggie lovers)
½ oz of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 T. of Maries yogurt dressing (I like bleu cheese)
1 hard taco shell broken up
Chop up the chicken breast after it is boiled and add
½ tsp Paprika
½ tsp Chili powder
1/8 tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
A dash of oregano
Sprinkle over chicken in a fry pan and sauté with ¼ c of water until it evaporates.
(Save ½ of the chicken breast for a second salad)
Put crushed taco shell on the bottom, salad, cheese, hot chicken, and dressing on
top. I was surprised at how few calories this has for how filling it is!
Calories: 258
Fat: 14
Protein: 17
I had been getting the salads in the bowl with chicken, cheese, dressing, and
tortilla strips and that was 290 calories. This is much larger, and much more
filling. You can’t beat that!

What's Maries yogurt dressing?
I just found it at Publix.... I haven't seen it at Wal-Mart.... It is so yummy, just made with yogurt so its low cal. It comes in bleu cheese, feta, and ranch. It is over by the pre packaged salads.0 -

YAY! Told ya lol Did you add any extras like tomatoes or onions? If people like avocado and have a few calories to spare that could be used to! So many options....0 -

A couple of tablespoons of salsa mixed with a small amount of sour cream would be awesome and make the sour cream go farther.0
