Easy Green Goddess Chicken and Chickpea Salad
A fresh and crunchy salad that makes lunch meal prep simple and satisfying.
dailyrecipesbook.comThere is nothing better than having a healthy lunch waiting in the fridge when you are busy. This salad is one of my favorite go to meals because it is packed with protein and takes almost no time to put together.
I love using rotisserie chicken here to keep things quick, but you can use any cooked chicken you have on hand. It stays fresh for days in the fridge, so it is perfect for packing up for work or a quick afternoon bite.
