How to Make Budget-Friendly BBQ Chicken Salad

Who doesn’t like barbecued chicken during the summer? Tossing it in with some lower carb vegetables and turkey bacon makes for a salad that will be popular with the entire family. Serve it with some whole wheat garlic bread, if desired.

Step-By-Step Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

  2. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. Line the sheet with chicken breasts and brush each generously with barbeque sauce. Bake for 30 minutes or until internal temperature of chicken is 165 degrees F. Set aside to cool.

  3. In a large salad bowl, toss together bacon, carrots, lettuce, onion, cucumber, tomatoes, salt (optional), and pepper.

  4. Once chicken is cool, chop into small pieces and toss with the salad ingredients.

  5. Pour dressing over salad and toss gently to coat.
