Fresh Blueberry Salad

This is so yummy. Great way to use fresh blueberries. It's good with chicken or just plain. Serve the dressing on the side the salad doesn't look pretty dressed but it tastes great. 

Blueberry dressing:

  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/4 cup high quality balsamic vinegar
  • 2 fresh garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 Tbsps raw honey
  • sea salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • Salad:
  • 1-1/2 lbs chicken breasts or thighs, skinless and boneless
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tsps Italian seasoning
  • 2 Tbsps olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 large head romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1 English cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1 avocado, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 4 oz crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup pecans, roughly chopped
  1. Season your chicken with sea salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning on all sides.
  2. Drizzle with the oil and rub on all sides.
  3. Preheat an outdoor grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Spritz grill with a bit of avocado oil to prevent sticking.
  4. Grill your chicken until grill marks appear and the internal temperature reads 165 degrees f. so you know it's cooked through.
  5. Allow your grilled chicken to sit on a cutting board for 5 minutes before slicing it.
  6. Meanwhile, place the dressing ingredients into a food processor or high speed blender and pulse until very smooth.
  7. Prepare the veggies for the salad and add them to a large salad bowl as shown.
  8. Top with your chicken and drizzle with dressing as desired.
