If you are looking for a delicious and filling salad recipe to serve as a meal for the family or take to your next cook-out then you must try my Skinny Grilled Fruit and Chicken Salad. This salad pairs a colorful assortment of fresh fruit with seasoned grilled chicken. I always use my recipe for Skinny Cracker Barrel grilled chicken in this recipe but you could season the grilled chicken in way that you like. I also recommend topping this salad with my homemade Strawberry Balsamic dressing, the dressing just compliments the flavors perfectly, I listed the recipe at the bottom of this post. Enjoy!
