Napa Chicken Salad



I can't take much credit for this recipe (it was inspired by a sandwich I had at Panera Bread), but it's quick, tasty, waistline-friendly and it reminds me of summer. Mix these ingredients together:

-2 tbsp of Trader Joe's Sweet Poppy dressing (2 pts)
-8 oz cooked plain, boneless, skinless, chicken breast, cubed (7.5)
-1/8 cup raw, sliced almonds (2 pts)
-1/2 cup red, seedless grapes, halved (0.5 pts)
-1 stick of celery, sliced (0 pts)
-salt & pepper to your taste

6 points per serving | 2 servings

I served this up on two slices of wheat bread w/ a leaf of heirloom lettuce. The poppy seed dressing is not very sweet and has a bit of a vinegar taste to it. It's one of my favorite things at Trader Joe's.
