Here’s another great meal for the Carnival season: A Tropical Chicken Salad. It’s filled with both vegetables and fruits and grilled chicken!
There are little bits of Portugal bursting throughout with flavour. A simple citrus vinaigrette is the perfect match to this delicious salad. Plus all that protein from the chicken is just what you need to help fill you up.
Trust me when I say if you are not a “salad person” after trying this one you will become “salad person”
I hope you enjoy!
