Colorful, healthy, and tasty... This salad checks all the boxes!
This Strawberry Avocado Salad with Grilled Chicken and Champagne Vinaigrette is a great entrée salad that is both savory with a hint of natural sweetness. The whole thing comes in at about $20 to make for 4 servings.
WOT we love about this recipe: The fact that we are using fresh strawberries that are now in season. Sure, you can make this recipe any time of the year, but this salad just looks like summertime.
This recipe is also perfect as a starter salad with or without the chicken.
