Easy At Work Salad

Hey guys! Aimee here! I copied this straight out of my nutrition guide for this week. This is the salad I am making for lunch each day. (I hope the format looks ok, I literally copied and pasted from my webpage)

So basically I bought some Roman Hearts and I chop up a whole heart and put it into the Tupperware. Then I throw the baked chicken into a snack baggie, some black beans into a mini Tupperware, I crunch up the Melba Toast to make it like croutons, and I cheat a little and used a piece of low fat string cheese as a little extra. Oh, it's not on the list, but I've also been putting fresh broccoli on my salad as well.

For those vegetarians, replace the chicken with tofu or more black beans.

This has been a pretty easy lunch for me to make AND it is very filling. I just toss it all together at my desk at work and munch on it while I do my work. LOVE IT!
