Great workouts and delicious recipes that are on plan!

I’m not much of a chicken breast eater so I definitely need some flavour to keep it interesting and most chicken salad recipes contain loads of mayonnaise or dairy products that contain an over abundance of calories and fats, but not this one.

A simple can of coconut milk makes this salad deliciously creamy while roasted chiles, fresh cilantro, sweet fruit and crunchy pecans really bring the flavour.

Serve on large butter lettuce leaves.

Servings: 8

Here’s what you need…

For the Creamy Coconut Dressing:
1 (14oz) can coconut milk, full fat

1 teaspoon lemon juice
dash salt
dash pepper

1 cup celery, finely chopped
1 cup red grapes, halved
½ cup pecans, chopped
