Healthy eating doesn't need to be complicated.

In fact, some of the most satisfying meals are also the simplest. Fresh vegetables, lean protein, and a light dressing can come together to create a colourful dish that's both nourishing and full of flavour.

This week's Happy Home Kitchen recipe features a Grilled Chicken Garden Salad—an easy meal that's perfect for lunch, dinner, or even meal prep throughout the week. Packed with crisp vegetables, creamy avocado, and tender grilled chicken, it's a recipe that proves healthy food can be just as delicious as it is nutritious.

Ingredients

For the Chicken

• Chicken breast

• Your preferred seasoning

• Olive oil (optional)

For the Salad

• Romaine lettuce

• Cherry tomatoes

• Cucumbers

• Sweet peppers

• Red onion

• Avocado

• Optional feta cheese

Dressing

• Food Club Light Italian Dressing

Step 1: Grill the Chicken

Begin by seasoning the chicken breast with your favourite blend of herbs and spices.

Cook the chicken on a hot skillet until beautifully browned on both sides and fully cooked through. Allow it to rest for a few minutes before slicing into thin strips.

Perfectly grilled chicken adds protein and makes this salad filling enough to enjoy as a complete meal.

Step 2: Prepare the Fresh Vegetables

Fresh ingredients are the foundation of every great garden salad.

Wash and prepare:

• Crisp romaine lettuce

• Sweet cherry tomatoes

• Fresh cucumbers

• Colourful sweet peppers

• Thinly sliced red onion

Arrange everything inside a large salad bowl before adding sliced avocado for extra creaminess and healthy fats.

If desired, finish with a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese for added richness.

Every ingredient contributes its own colour, texture, and flavour, making each bite fresh and satisfying.

Step 3: Bring Everything Together

Some ingredients aren't meant to steal the spotlight.

Instead, they quietly bring all the other flavours together.

That's exactly what Food Club Light Italian Dressing (GYD 835) does.

Its light combination of herbs, tangy vinegar, and subtle sweetness enhances the vegetables without overpowering them.

Simply drizzle the dressing evenly across the salad before gently tossing everything together.

The result is a fresh, vibrant salad where every ingredient still shines.

More Than Just a Salad Dressing

One of the best things about Italian dressing is its versatility.

While it's perfect for fresh salads, it can also be used as:

• A quick chicken marinade

• Dressing for cold pasta salads

• A finishing drizzle over roasted vegetables

• A light dressing for grain bowls

Keeping one versatile dressing in your refrigerator makes preparing healthy meals faster and easier throughout the week.
