Quick Superfood Salads - Low Carb

Last night we ran a number of errands and did a bit of shopping after work. We didn't get home until late. I fixed dinner and we ate around 9:00. I snapped a quick photo of our salads and then fell asleep before posting. I used an Eat Smart 7 Superfood Salad Mix and topped it with some chipotle seasoned chicken cutlets that I cut into strips. I made a Cranberry Vinaigrette that was a bit different than my last version. I used apple cider vinegar, some of my cranberry sauce, McCormick's Chipotle Roasted Garlic Seasoning, a pinch of sea salt and avocado oil (instead of olive oil). It was SO good! I used my little dressing Cruet that has the marked fill lines for oil and vinegar and water. I swapped the water for cranberry sauce and just added the seasonings. It was my favorite dressing so far...sweet, tart and yummy with the avocado oil! Check out the photo below. Enjoy!

Hi Jane,

Thank you! So sorry I forgot to link the recipe for the cranberry sauce -- I went back and linked it to the "word" in my post. I make a very simple cranberry sauce using fresh cranberries (you could also use frozen). Here's the link to the recipe: http://www.gourmetgirlcooks.com/2013/12/cranberry-orange-coconut-sauce.html
