Niki’s Chicken, Spinach & Pumpkin Salad Recipe

 

Serves 4-6      Prep 30 mins     Cooking Time about 30 minutes

 

Ingredients

260g ( 9.5oz) cooked chicken breast, chopped, sliced or shredded

440g (15.6oz) pumpkin, cubed and baked

130g (4.7oz) baby spinach leaves, washed and dried

110g (4oz) danish feta, crumbled

70g (2.5oz) walnuts, chopped

1 avocado, halved, stone removed, peeled and sliced

cold pressed olive oil and balsamic vinegar to dress salad

 

Method

Peel, cube and place pumpkin on a baking tray. Lightly spray with Olive Oil and bake at 180° C (350-375° F or Gas mark 4-5) for about 30 minutes or until cooked but still firm. Cool.

You can either grill, bake or barbeque your 2 chicken breasts or if you are really busy buy a cooked chicken and just use the chicken breast for this recipe. Remove skin and either chop, slice or shred chicken.

Layer all ingredients on a platter and drizzle with your favourite dressing or I prefer just a little cold pressed olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Delicious !
