No-Bake Recipe #2

Sundays are usually laid back in our house.  Hubby and I make our weekly trip to the farmer's market and we hit the gym around 3pm.  Salads and protein shakes are a staple for us, along with delicious desserts!  Since I'm on a No-Bake kick, today I'm using up the last of the leftover grilled chicken on a bed of greens.

Mary's Super Sunday Salad
2 servings

Ingredients:
Salad Greens
2 boiled eggs
Chicken, cooked and shredded
Cucumber, halved and sliced
Blue Cheese, crumbled
Candied Pecans
White Raisins
Dressing:  I prefer Apple-Cider Viniagrette

Directions:
Add your greens into 2 bowls.  Top with chicken and cucumber slices.
Peel the boiled eggs and prepare using an egg slicer.  Add eggs to salad.
Add all of the yummy toppings, salad dressing and Serve!

While you're at it, you might want to distract the curious kitten or you'll end up needing a little first aid like I did.  Have you ever had a kitten attach themselves to the back of your leg while you're wearing shorts?
Doesn't she look so sweet and innocent?

    This looks good. Although, I would sub the blue cheese with something else, perhaps feta. Or maybe avocado. Thanks so much for sharing on Marvelous Mondays!

      After I made this salad my neighbor brought over a few avocados so I'll definitely make this again with fresh Avo.

    I like the idea of a "no bake" day. I think it looks really yummy.

      It's nice to take a break from the oven for a few days.

    I love these no-bake recipes! I might have to seriously look at these once our weather gets warm again!

    So yummy and perfect for a day when you don't want to use your oven, which is often for me right now. Thanks for sharing at the Our Favorite Things Link Party.
