BBQ Chicken Salad

Dinner

24 Jun
     I have made different versions of this salad a lot lately. The first time, I added all of the ingredients to a bowl then tossed it with the dressing right before serving. The second was on Father’s Day when I had my family over for lunch. I actually invited them for brunch and was planning to serve french toast with the best syrup recipe, but I opted for something fresh and summery and everyone loved it. When I served it then, I had everyone add their ingredients, which were in smaller bowls on the table, to a large bowl and I tossed it with the dressing for them individually and then put it on their plate. 

     I originally fell in love with this salad at California Pizza Kitchen. I have probably had it at least 75 times at that restaurant. Making it at home is great, though, because you can store each separate ingredient in airtight containers, including the chopped romaine, then toss the ingredients easily for a quick lunch for a few days. I love the Snapware airtight food storage container set because it has some small containers to hold smaller ingredients and they don’t take up a lot of space in your fridge. Plus, they are spill-proof so I can bring the containers along with me in the car and I don’t have to worry about them spilling. 

    And, what do I think makes this salad really come together? The mixture of the ranch and BBQ sauce as the dressing. I have never found a more delicious combo and everyone that I serve this to or recommend this to agrees. When I order it at CPK, I always ask for extra BBQ sauce. Another nice thing about this salad is that you don’t have to stick with the exact measurements and ingredients for it to turn out just how you want it. It’s pretty fool-proof and you can add or subtract ingredients. I hope you love it as much as I do! 


     When I served it for my family, I also added avocado, olives and edamame. I would love to eat this with jicama too for an added crunch.

#ad You think you’re getting a good night’s sl #ad You think you’re getting a good night’s sleep, but you continue to wake up feeling unrested and aren’t sure why.

Your spouse notices you are snoring and they can’t get their own good night’s sleep by sleeping in the same room.

Neither option is any fun for anyone involved!

Snoring can be a symptom. Sleep apnea is where your throat closes off while you are sleeping, which does not allow for proper oxygen flow to your brain, thus leaving you tired the next day….and leaving your spouse sleepless as well.

And we all know that a CPAP machine is not the most user-friendly experience out there…

Enter @Soundsleepmedical. They have created an appliance that gives you sound sleep. The device holds your jaw slightly forward when you sleep so your airway is not blocked at all, and you wake up feeling refreshed and your spouse can sleep back in the same room as you.

Quality of life and a happy spouse is a win-win.

Be sure to use the link in my bio to schedule your free sleep screening. You can use code JENICA to receive a free sleep screening, which includes an in-office consultation and at-home sleep test, along with $50 off your oral appliance.

Sweet dreams my friends.
I cannot BELIEVE it was only a short year ago that I cannot BELIEVE it was only a short year ago that I was deciding if I could handle doing another frozen embryo transfer…and now LOOK at him 🥹 It was one of the hardest years of my entire life. Going through things I don’t wish on anyone. But look at us now 😭 And looking internally…the things I’ve learned.

Tell me about something a year ago for you that you didn’t know you’d get through and can’t believe you are where you’re at 🤍👇🏻 #infertilityjourney #ivfsuccess #frozenembryotransfer
This is it. Not just in motherhood, although moth This is it.

Not just in motherhood, although motherhood really amplifies it, but in life.

It’s the fast days that are loud and sunny.

It’s the slow days that are quiet and snowy.

The mismatched pajamas and the dressed to the nines.

It’s the mess.

It’s the organization and order.

It’s the to-do list that gets crossed off and the to-do list that doesn’t.

It’s in the allowing of both.

It’s in perhaps preferring one over the other, but not judging either.

It’s in the wisdom that both will pass and each have lessons to teach.

Neither is wrong.

Both are allowed.

This is it.

It might feel impossible in the middle of it and y It might feel impossible in the middle of it and you might question everything.

“I have no idea what the future will bring.”

“Will everything I’m putting myself through be worth it?”

“What am I doing?”

“Am I making the right choice?”

But your moments will come. Trust that and let it bring you peace.

The alternative is feeling anxious, which is also completely acceptable and normal, but remember that you also have the option of trusting and feeling peace, too. There is room for both.

You’re not alone in this 🤍

It was a year ago that I decided to jump into the It was a year ago that I decided to jump into the deep, black ocean of IVF again. I knew what I was doing this time and I was filled with fear because…I knew.

When I found out I was pregnant, the fear was my secret. Only a close few knew.

And this space was filled with tears, uncertainty…soul reaching prayers.

Sleepless nights, gut wrenching heartache.

Secrets that I hold close to my heart.

And then he came.

And the healing began.

And the mama, this mama, knew she did it.

That black ocean had swallowed her whole and she’d do it again for the light that is him.

Once she swam to the surface, and jaggedly gasped in the fresh air and felt the sunshine on her face, she knew she would do it all over again.

For this sacred chaos.

Tonight as I was moving the bassinet out of my room, I stopped. The room will soon be cleared. The shelves emptied and the order restored. And I can’t believe that the ocean was conquered. The chaos was where I found the strength and the beauty.

The sacred, precious chaos.
