Garden Salad with Sauteed Chicken

Bikram yoga is really exhausting, and it makes me really really hungry when I reach home. So here's a very quick, easy and healthy recipe - a perfect post workout meal.


1. In a pan, add olive oil. Saute garlic and onion. Add the cubed chicken breast. Season with salt and pepper.

2. Prepare the healthy stuff! I used iceberg lettuce, Thai baby cucumber and cherry tomatoes.

3. Take note that not all salad dressings are healthy, especially the cream-based ones sold in the market. So if you're trying to lose weight, it is better to use vinaigrette than ranch/thousand island dressing, to avoid those extra calories. But for me, the healthiest option is to make your own dressing.

For the vinaigrette: mix 2 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil, 1 teaspoon honey and 1 calamansi (you can also use lemon). Season with salt and pepper.

4. Just give it a toss.

TADA!!!
