Chicken Salad - Taco Style - wheat free/grain free - can be dairy free

Chicken Salad - Taco Style

Another take along lunch idea!  This is so simple and you can use leftover chicken.

1/2 C loosely chopped chicken
1/2 C loosely chopped romaine lettuce
1/2 tomato, chopped or 4-5 cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 C black olives
1/4 avocado, loosely chopped
1 T ranch dressing - make sure it has zero sugar/zero carbs
2 T salsa - I used Pace Medium
optional:  2 T shredded cheddar 

Toss all ingredients with dressing and salsa.  If taking as a take along lunch, sprinkle the avocado with a little lemon juice to keep it from going brown and leave the dressing and salsa off and toss once you are ready to eat.

Calories (without the cheddar):  269 calories, 11 grams carbohydrates, 5.7 grams fiber.
