Avocado & Lime Chicken Salad (& Bento)
I have found the most delicious and nutritious recipe on Pinterest the other day. Kalyn's Kitchen adapted this Chicken Salad into a recipe that has been pinned over 420k times! I adapted the recipe to my tastes and it is dangerously yummy :)
This chicken salad would be delicious in a pita! Maybe my next cooking adventure will be homemade pitas....
This is how I would pack this recipe in my Lock & Lock Bento box. I've paired it with some yummy cherry tomatoes and an extra lime wedge because I LOVE lime! On the bottom section I have a hard boiled egg, brocolli, and more cherry tomatoes. To add some fruit, I added some blueberries and pumpkin seeds. I love the sweetness of the berry and the saltiness of the seed. Also, there is a surprise square of chocolate under the bottom divider. I love the Ghiradeli squares because they are under 100cal and DELICIOUS.
Isn't it beautiful?! I love having a bright and beautiful lunch. A colorful lunch is so much more fun (and healthy) to eat. I still have a big bowl of this chicken salad in my fridge for the rest of the week. Meal prep success!! This recipe takes like 15min, and your set for the week! Awesome!
