  • 1 cucumber, half-moon sliced
  • 4 radishes, sliced
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

Dressing Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup tahini (60 g)
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 1/2 cup water

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, grill, and cut into slices.

Notes

Cut vegetables in different shapes: We eat with our eyes first! Cutting the fruit and vegetables in different sizes and shapes adds texture and makes the salad look even better.

Store the dressing on a different container when meal prepping: Make sure you add the dressing when it’s time to eat so that your salad doesn’t get soggy.

Prevent the avocado from turning brown: If you’re making this salad ahead, brush the avocado with lemon juice to prevent it from turning brown.
