I used the diced up chicken to make a sweet salad for today...mmmm!
Yum, right?
This is 4 ozs of chopped up chicken breast
20 g of Craisins
1/4 of cucumber diced
1 diced up Braeburn apple
1 TBS Miracle Whip Light
According to MyFitnessPal this is approx 293 calories! Whee!
I was also thinking I could have used cottage cheese or mandarin organges and the juice to bind it together, but I didn't have those in the kitchen today.
Does anyone have any comments about my prepping to run 20 minutes this weeked in my post about running?
Tell me a salad you like! Especially if I can prep it the night before work and perhaps I can avoid dressing by using juicy ingredients!

Num! That looks like a great lunch to me! I do something similar but replace the miracle whip/may with Brianna's poppyseed. Either way...this is making me hungry!
Hi Mer! Looking forward to seeing you this weekend! I'd love to talk about your progress and your running.
I've been on a huge salad kick and wanted to share my all time favorite. I put together Red cabbage (because it was WAY more nutritional value than greens), cucumber, any color bell pepper (I like orange), and chick peas in a container the night before. In the morning, I add a sprinkle of sunflower seeds and just a tiny splash of basalmic vinaigrette. YUM!
Hey Mer-
I was scared to death to do my 20 minute run....but I did it! Yes, it was hard--but it was a GOOD hard (not an "OMG Kill me now" hard). And the good news is that the first 2 days of W6 are pretty easy after that!
Misty - I have to get that dressing AND the oatmeal that you buy, it sounds so good, is it at Trader Joe's?
Beth - I'm looking forward to seeing you, too! I'm going to be a *bit* late as I have a bday dinner to go to, so stick around for the cheesecake I'm bringing :) I love that salad, I'm adding that to my list! Thanks!!
Mindy - ok, I'm gearing myself up for this, I've had lots of encouraging words on Twitter, too. I can slow down if I have to!
