Chicken Salad - 1 Syn

This is a lovely salad. It's fresh and crunchy and kind of helps take the goo off for a Cesar salad.

Ingredients - Serves 1

Chicken breast, skinless, cooked and diced
1 slice of bacon, fat removed, cooked and diced
1 head of baby gem lettuce, leaves pulled apart and washed
1 scallion, finely chopped
10 cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 red pepper, diced
1 tsp of light mayo
1 tbsp of fat free natural yogurt
Salt & Pepper

Method

1. Add all the chopped ingredients, except the lettuce, to a bowl
2. Mix the mayo, salt & pepper and yogurt together and toss with the chopped ingredients
3. Arrange the lettuce leaves on a plate and top with salad mixture
4. Serve immediately

If I am taking this for my lunch I always keep the lettuce leaves separate until I am ready to eat. It helps avoid the leaves going soggy.
