I use spinach instead of romaine and iceberg lettuce.
Here's how I make it.
SALAD INGREDIENTS:
- 8 cups fresh spinach, rinsed and torn into bite-size pieces
- 1 1/4 pounds of Boneless chicken breast cut into cubes
- 2 cups sliced strawberries
- 2 cups blueberries
- 1/2 cup chopped almonds
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese or 3/4 cup Gorgonzola cheese crumbles
FAT FREE STRAWBERRY VINAIGRETTE INGREDIENTS:
- 1 package (16 ounces) frozen unsweetened strawberries, thawed
- 6 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 cup sugar (sugar substitute)
- 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/8 teaspoon poppy seeds
Place the strawberries in a blender; cover and process until pureed. Add lemon juice and sugar; cover and process until blended. While processing, gradually add vinegar and oil in a steady stream; process until thickened. Stir in poppy seeds. Transfer to a bowl or jar; cover and store in the refrigerator.
Yield: 2-1/2 cups.
