🌿 Chopped Chicken & Beet Salad with Honey Dijon Dressing

Some of my favorite meals begin with a big bowl of greens and whatever delicious ingredients I have on hand. This colorful chopped salad is sweet, savory, crunchy and satisfying—and using ready-to-eat sliced beets makes it so easy to prepare. 💛

🌿 The Rosemary Thyme Way

I used 365 No Salt Added Sliced Beets to make this salad especially simple. There’s no need to cook, peel and cool whole beets before making lunch!

If you can’t find no-salt-added beets, use any brand of sliced canned or jarred beets. Drain and rinse them well under cool water to help remove some of the sodium, then pat dry and chop.

For an even lower-sodium version, use home-grilled chicken rather than rotisserie chicken and choose a lower-sodium feta if available. There’s no added salt in my Honey Dijon Dressing—the feta, Dijon, cranberries and beets already bring plenty of flavor.

Easy, colorful, full of texture, and perfect for a light lunch or dinner. 🌿🥗💛
