My husband and I decided that we needed to make some changes in our life. We’re not eating as healthy as we should and we’re not getting our exercise in either! So I went looking for some healthy recipes and found one I wanted to share with you. Check out this spinach salad with chicken and avocado recipe. My entire family (parents and 3 kids) loved it!

First, gather your ingredients for Spinach Salad with Chicken and Avocado recipe!

Fresh spinach  

Chicken breast (I grilled mine)

Roma tomatoes 2 chopped

avocado sliced into strips

sunflower seeds 

light ranch dressing 

How to make a delicious Spinach Salad with Chicken and Avocado recipe.

The first thing we did was grill our chicken breast. We cut our chicken breast up for the salads and left two whole chicken breasts to eat on during the week. We try to meal prep on the weekend if we can so we can grab easy lunches to go. We grilled over charcoal. So we start our charcoal about 20 minutes before we put the chicken on. Then we grill the chicken breast 6-7 minutes per side.

Then we put our salad together. We chopped our tomatoes, cut our avocado and grabbed our ranch and sunflower seeds.

And then we put it all together!

It was so delicious!

It’s so easy to throw a salad together on these hot summer nights. They’re my favorite way to not heat the house and to get a healthy meal. Look at how delicious this salad was! 

You can find the spinach salad recipe I made here! This is the exact recipe I made and it is so good. Salads are a great way to help you to eat a healthy diet.  It inspires us to watch what we eat. We’re both in the pre-diagnosis range and we don’t want to go any further in that range. 

So we’ve been making lifestyle changes. Changes that include us walking both days on the weekend early in the morning. We both have fairly sedentary jobs and this is one way for us to be together and get our workout in. We love our weekend walking rituals.

    I did not know there are vitamins geared towards those with diabetes. Guess there is a vitamin for everyone these days!

    This looks like a filling and delicious recipe full of the things that I love. This would be great currently for me because it can switch up my regular foods I eat a lot since trying to tone myself up. A fresh salad is great here in the humidity in Georgia!

    I know avocado is a healthy food, but I just can’t seem to fall in love with it. I do love the idea of the Nature Made Health Pak. I think it’s great to have the vitamins all together like that.
