This is my go-to salad for lunch while on the 21-day fix program. It’s filling, portable, and delicious.
Ingredients:
- baby spinach
- grilled chicken
- gorgonzola cheese
- walnuts
- dried cherries
- green onions
- 6 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 c. fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp. raw honey
- 2 tsp. dijon mustard
- 6 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
To make dressing, combine vinegar, lemon juice, honey, mustard, and olive oil in blender.
green container – fill with spinach and green onions…TWICE!
red container – fill with grilled chicken. I like to grill my chicken on my Breville panini press with Mrs. Dash Extra Spicy.
blue container – fill with equal portions Gorgonzola cheese and walnuts.
orange container – fill with dressing then pour on salad.
Store leftover dressing in a covered container in the refrigerator. Enjoy!
What do you count the cherries under?
I save a little room in my purple container for them.
Did you make the balsamic dressing from the book?

This is delicious! Love the flavor combinations. The only modification I made was to cut the olive oil to 2T. Thanks for a delicious lunch!
