This recipe has quickly become one of my favorites. It’s simple, it’s quick, it’s filling, and it’s good for you. Using nothing but whole foods, this dish is Whole30 and Paleo approved.
I drive a ton for my job, which makes it difficult to eat a healthy lunch because (1) it is so much easier to do a quick drive-thru, and (2) I am still waiting for a car upgrade equipped with a refrigerator and a microwave. But with this chicken avocado salad, I can throw it into a bag with an ice pack and a cold La Croix and it’s good to go by lunch time!
