4 medium chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
8 cups mixed greens (e.g., romaine, arugula, baby spinach)
4 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and quartered
1 large avocado, sliced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup cooked and crumbled beef
1/4 cup dairy-free blue cheese, crumbled (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil for grilling
For the Honey Dijon Dressing:
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for strict paleo)
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then grill for 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Let them rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly.
In a large bowl, toss the mixed greens, hard-boiled eggs, avocado slices, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and crumbled beef.
In a small bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the Honey Dijon Dressing until smooth and creamy.
Add the grilled chicken slices to the salad and drizzle with the dressing. Toss gently to combine. Serve immediately, topped with crumbled dairy-free blue cheese, if desired.
This salad is naturally gluten-free and Paleo-friendly.
Customize by adding grilled shrimp, tofu, or extra veggies to suit your preferences.
For optimal freshness, store the dressing separately from the salad.
