A yummy and healthy chicken salad idea



Recommended Posts

Mix together salad bag mix, sliced beets, crumbled goat cheese, diced walnuts and garlic chicken. Very yummy and full of flavor, especially the beet and goat cheese combo.

You can buy the garlic chicken from costco in packs of 6 garlic chicken skewers. They naturally break apart into 3-4 chicken chucks per skewer, you can break them down further depending on desired size.

I have not had beets in years. I got to put them on my grocery list. Do you buy them fresh, canned, or frozen?

They are cooked ready to eat beets from costco. I swear I keep costco in business with all the things I buy from them. :)

Sounds good except for the beets. Don't like the taste or texture.

If you have the time or desire, you can roast fresh beets in your oven. I like to lightly coat them with a small amount of olive oil and sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. I usually go for a moderately hot oven (400) if I'm doing them by themselves, but you can generally go at whatever temperature other stuff in the oven is going. Just check them periodically until they are your desired doneness. I usually cut mine in halves or quarters and check them starting at about fifteen minutes to turn them. You can get the other colors of beets and mix it up for variety, and they are so tasty freshly roasted!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
