I am not sure if you have noticed, but lately I have been making a lot of dishes that incorporate Mann’s Organic Super Blend slaw. I love it for so many reasons. It comes washed and shredded, so the minute you open the bag, it’s ready to use. No washing. No chopping. I also enjoy that it’s a flavorful blend of so many healthy veggies. It’s a great way to get super food power into your diet.
I recently used it in this recipe for Black Bean and Butternut Squash Street Tacos and in this recipe for 30 Minute Sesame Beef Stir-Fry. I am always looking for ways to incorporate more veggies!
What is in this Healthy Chicken Salad?
I thought you’d never ask! This enticing salad is filled with these healthy ingredients:
- Grilled or sautéed chicken breast–To make it even faster, use rotisserie chicken
- Mann’s Organic Super Blend slaw mix–Just open the bag and fill your bowl
- Matchstick carrots–Because a few more carrots is always a good idea
- Green onion–For crunch and a savory punch
- Unsweetened dried cranberries–For a sweet bite
- Sunflower seeds–Add a little nutty texture
- Thinly sliced radishes–They had a crisp freshness to everything
- A simple Orange Vinaigrette–The perfect balance of acid and sweet. If you are in a hurry you can just use oil and vinegar or your favorite store-bought salad dressing.
- Fresh chopped parsley–enhances the fantastic flavor of this salad and provides anti-inflammatory benefits.
What are Superfoods?
Superfoods are foods–such as berries, nuts, cruciferous vegetables and salmon–that are rich in nutrients. These foods pack a big punch and are an important component in maintaining health. Full of antioxidants, vitamins, healthy fats and more, these foods give you a boost in energy as well.
Make this Quick and Easy Superfood salad for a family meal or make it for yourself and enjoy leftovers for quick lunches. Unlike a lot of salads, this one is still crunchy several days after you make it.
