A different kind of salad

I'll eat one salad a day, but two?  That's a little much.

Chicken salad should mix things up a little! Especially when it's wrapped inside green cabbage and paired with fruit!


And a sprinkle of cheese for Mr. PT!


For this chicken salad, chop and combine:
-2 cooked chicken breasts
-broccoli florets
-carrots
-scallions
-fresh dill
-red/black pepper
-other favorite spices
-mayo with olive oil

Mr. PT and I both noticed the spiciness of the cabbage...it was a nice touch!

This meal had the added bonus of vitamin C and fiber wrapped up in our kiwi and red grapefruit.  Consider it our vitamin supplement for the day!

Combine with a cardio/strength workout.  If you are fortunate enough to be close to your gym, ride your bike, walk, or run there to do a quick strength session.  If the gym is only accessible by vehicle, do a quick cardio in your neighborhood (walk, run, bike) and do some push-ups, sit-ups, tricep dips, and lunches in your driveway.  30-40 minutes is all you need to keep you honest.
