Chopped Greek Chicken Salad
This is one of my favorite “go to” salads- easy to make and very nutritious! I normally cook chicken in bulk on the weekend and store it in my refrigerator so that I can use it throughout the week as an ingredient for salads and scrambles, such as this one.
Nutritional Benefits: Apple cider vinegar aids digestion, promoting cleansing and detoxification and also contains antimicrobial properties, helping to keep your immune system strong to fight off infection! Olives and extra virgin olive oil contain monounsaturated fatty acids which decrease inflammation and LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and raise HDL (“good”) cholesterol, promoting cardiovascular health.
