Lunch is so hard for me. Oh, don’t get me wrong I’m always hungry for lunch, but I usually end up alternating between staring into the fridge and pantry for a while trying to decide on what to have. The situation becomes even more frustrating if I’m out of the house running errands during lunch time. Having a child with Celiac means that we just don’t eat out, order out, or pick up a pizza when we’re in a rush and need sustenance. So this has become one of our go to quick lunch or dinner options. It’s Paleo (gluten free) and packed with protein, vitamins, and healthy fats. Not to mention it is super tasty! This recipe will feed 2-4 hungry people.
2-3 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
1 ripe avocado, mashed
1 celery stalk, chopped
1/4 cup onion, minced
1/3 cup pomegranate seeds
handful of grapes, halved
1/3 cup pecans, roughly chopped
salt and pepper to taste
Prepare all your ingredients and simple combine together. It’s fun to use leftover chicken for this to give it a new unique flavor every time you make it. Eat it with a fork, put it in a corn tortilla, or scoop it up with corn chips. However you like it, you’ll be eating a very filling and healthy protein and vitamin packed meal.
