Can you believe it?
A salad on MY blog? I can't really believe it either.
But this salad is GOOD!
I got the idea for it from Cheddars. That's the only place that I will go and order a salad. It's also the only place I leave full and not regretting my meal. I wonder if those two have anything to do with one another?
What you need:
Penne Pasta
Lettuce
Chicken Breast
Caesar Dressing
What to do:
Put the amount of lettuce that you want in a bowl.
Cook the pasta until tender. I made 3/4 of a cup for just myself but you can adjust it to the amount you want.
Cook your chicken.
Sometimes I buy pre-cooked chicken breasts, the kind that you just have to microwave. The last time I made this we marinated our own chicken and grilled it and it was SO much better. But, you can use either one!
Throw it all in the bowl and toss with Caesar (or any dressing that you like)! I barely use any dressing because it grosses me out if I use too much but do it your way!
If you are wanting to marinade your chicken the way I did I used:
Worcestershire
Italian Dressing
Mustard
Asian Zing Sauce from Buffalo Wild Wings
Salt&Pepper
Caesar Dressing
BBQ Sauce
Weird huh? I just randomly mixed ingredients from our fridge and it turned out DELICIOUS! We both agreed that it was the best chicken we had ever made. Who woulda thought just throwing random things into a bowl would turn out good? I got lucky.
Oh yum!! That looks and sounds delicious!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Faith!
DeleteIsn't that the best, when you randomly mix and it turns out edible. We did that on Sunday night, and I even took the left overs for lunch today. THAT doesn't happen often. haha
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you remembered to take it for lunch and didn't have to go by McDonald's! : ) And yes, it is the best!
DeleteYumm! I think this combines all my favorite things- salad, chicken AND pasta!
