I made a super easy and yummy lunch today! Some days I dread making meals for myself if they haven't been prepped already. I have to make lunch for 3 kids that have carbs, so marking and sharing lunch with them is usually out of the picture.
During the work week, I normally have left overs to take, so its not a big deal. But on the weekends, Ive got to figure it out. Some days I just have cheese, salami and cucumbers with veggie-salt, but today I decided to get adventurous!
I looked in the cabinets and found canned chicken from Costco. I know, it doesn't sound the best. But Costco makes great Tuna so I felt like it couldn't be that bad. I knew I has a few other Taco items, so I decided to mix it all together!
Let me show you how I made the Taco Chicken Salad!
Ingredients -canned chicken - I used the canned chicken from Costco
-sliced olives
-1 roma tomato
-shredded cheese
-cilantro dressing
-taco seasoning
**I didn't measure anything, I just added as I went.
Step 1
Open the canned chicken and drain it well. Even after you drain it out of one side, drain in from the other. There always seems to be liquid hiding in there somewhere.
Step 2
Dump chicken into bowl. Cut up tomato and throw that into the bowl. Add some sliced olives and shredded cheese. Add a little drizzle of the Cilantro dressing.
Step 3
Mix it all together. Add a sprinkle of taco seasoning and mix again.
Lunch is served! How easy was that! And my youngest wanted a bite and loved it!
The canned chicken is so easy and can be used it a lot of different ways. I can't wait to try out some more ideas with the canned chicken!
