Salads can have a reputation of being a bit bland and not very filling. The last couple of weeks I’ve been eating lots of this Chicken & Bacon Salad which has been super tasty and really filling and I thought I would share it here.

How To Make Chicken & Bacon Salad


The first step is to cook the chicken and bacon. I’ve used chicken mini fillets and smoked bacon medallions. Season the chicken first on both sides with salt and pepper.

Whilst that is cooking it’s time to prep the salad. I’ve used lettuce, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, yellow pepper, olives, sun dried tomatoes and spring onion but feel free to use whatever you like in your salad.

The key for me eating lots of salad is to chop it up small. It just makes it a bit easier to eat this way.

Once the salad is all chopped, mix it together and add some salad dressing.

I used this Honey & Mustard salad dressing as it’s really tasty and low in calories but feel free to use whatever dressing you like or make your own.

When the chicken and bacon is cooked, simply chop it up then add it to the salad. And that’s it, a delicious and super filling Chicken & Bacon Salad for under 450 calories.
