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.

I posted this the other day on my IG stories and s I posted this the other day on my IG stories and so many of you were like, “😅 Good to hear!!” So I’ll say it again for those of you who need it.

My twins are almost 5 (in July) and it is SO.MUCH.EASIER 😭 at this age 🤣🤣🤣 Tyler and I actually cannot even believe it. Traveling with them is actually 100% FUN and not 100% exhausting like it was before 😂

So...if you need to hear it...you’ve got this. You’ll make it through the insane toddler stage.

Every day is a gift AND it’s really hard and I’m here to tell you that it gets SO MUCH EASIER! 👏🏻

JUST BECAUSE IT’S HARD DOESN’T MEAN YOU’RE NOT GRATEFUL!

To all the twin moms who came before me and said 5 was easier, you were right. And thank you 😂 #twinmom #momoftwins
“Mix a little foolishness with your serious plan “Mix a little foolishness with your serious plans. It is lovely to be silly at the right moment.” - Horace

For me, one of the best things in the world about being a mom is that they help me to remember the things I once knew, but forgot. Being fully present and accepting what is in the moment, being silly, getting SO EXCITED, and seeing the world with magic.

We all knew these things once. We just forgot a little. 💗💙 #parcellsundayselfie 4/11/21

The best part of this phase of life with little ki The best part of this phase of life with little kids is it’s like Team Parcell, you know? Our little group. We can go anywhere and do anything together and just be so happy and grateful that it’s us 4 together. 😭

This is what I want for all who want it. It’s why I absolutely love teaching the tools I do over at @thesliceofsun for women with infertility. They allow you peace of mind in this really hard trial. Why I LOVE you and understand those of you who are in the thick of it so much.

Feeling so grateful for the people in my life including all of you. What a wonderful world 🌎 #lovethesepeople #familyvacations

Happy Easter! I’ve been thinking a lot about WHY Happy Easter! I’ve been thinking a lot about WHY I want to learn so much more about my Savior as I get older and I’ve decided it’s because I need Him more.

Children don’t have the voice of the adversary in their ears all the time. We do.

My Savior and Redeemer Jesus Christ SAVES me from the chaos. He is the peace where it doesn’t make sense for peace to exist.

He knows me and cares for me with a perfect love. The only thing I can slightly compare it to is the love I have for my children. A love so big that forgiveness is possible over and over...and over again.

A love so big He was willing to give His life so we could be saved.

I’ll never be able to repay that debt but I’ll spend every day I have in gratitude and use His atonement that He made for me. For each of us. It will not have been in vain for me.

God be thanked for the matchless gift of His Divine Son 🙏 He is risen! #heisrisen #comeuntochrist #easter2021
