Today's lunch was sooooo yummy, and it was really quick to throw together. Having my Salad Bar made for the week is the secret to my success!
This lunch was made in a Sistema Klip it Salad to Go container, which is one of my favorite containers to use when I'm packing a salad for lunch. In the bottom is a mix of lettuces and spinach tossed with purple carrot slices and radish slices. In the top tier is cold grilled chicken cubes, goat cheese, cucumbers, and some heavenly multi-colored fresh tomatoes. I bought them at Sprout's, but they taste just like I picked them out of my garden!
But my favorite thing about this lunch is the salad dressing. I had a bunch of V-8 vegetable juice in the frige, and I got to thinking how fun it would be to use it as a base for a vinaigrette. I started playing around, and I loved the results! The combo of chicken, fresh tomatoes, and cucumbers mingled with creamy goat cheese and that tangy dressing made one outstandingly delicious salad!
I'm happy to share my recipe with you:
