Directions
After the holidays, we all want something light, healthy, and nourishing.
This evening salad is perfect for a diet, yet tasty and satisfying.
It’s rich in protein and healthy fats, keeping you full and energized for longer.
Preparation is quick and simple, making it an ideal dinner or evening snack.
Ingredients (for 2 servings)
- 150–200 grams grilled chicken, chopped
- 50 grams cottage cheese/ricotta cheese
- 1 small boiled beetroot, finely chopped (optional)
- 2–3 tablespoons low-fat sour cream or Greek yogurt (2% fat)
- 1–2 tablespoons walnuts, roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Chop the grilled chicken into small cubes or strips.
- Mix the chicken with cottage/ricotta cheese in a bowl.
- If you want a vibrant purple salad, add the chopped beetroot; for a “white” version, skip the beetroot.
- Add walnuts and toasted sesame seeds for texture and healthy fats.
- Combine with sour cream or Greek yogurt, season with salt and pepper.
- Serve immediately or chill briefly for an extra fresh taste.
Tips:
- Add a squeeze of lemon juice for extra freshness.
- You can make two different versions of the salad: one purple with beetroot, and one white without it—both equally healthy and delicious.
- For higher protein content, use more chicken or ricotta.
