Method

Prepare Ingredients

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken or Prepare Tuna

    If using chicken breast, cook it thoroughly, let it cool, and then chop into bite-sized pieces. If using canned tuna, simply drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Boil the Eggs

    Place the eggs in a pot of water, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let simmer for 9-12 minutes. Once done, cool in cold water, peel, and chop.

  3. 3

    Dice the Vegetables

    Dice the tomato and avocado into small, bite-sized pieces.

  4. 4

    Shred Cheeses

    Grate or chop the cheddar and mozzarella cheeses into smaller pieces.

Assemble the Salad

  1. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken (or tuna), chopped hard-boiled eggs, diced tomato, diced avocado, shredded cheddar, and mozzarella cheese.

  2. 6

    Add Dressing

    Drizzle the dressing of your choice over the salad mixture. Start with a small amount and add more to taste, mixing gently to combine all ingredients.

  3. 7

    Serve with Crackers

    Serve the salad in bowls alongside wheat crackers for a crunchy side.
