    Chicken Caesar Salad made with homemade mayo a perfect lunch for a busy day #yourguardianchef #salad #chicken #lunch

    The classic American Chicken Ceaser Salad, I usually make this salad when I have chicken left over from the previous day.

    To reduce calories use boiled chicken and low-fat mayonnaise.

    Another low-fat option is to use greek yoghurt instead of Mayo.

    Still a delicious salad.

    In this recipe, I use homemade mayonnaise for the dressing.

    If you want to make your homemade mayonnaise you can find the recipe here.

    If you want to have something different you can make homemade Indian bread and use it as a wrap to the chicken Ceaser salad.

    My boys love this homemade wrap

    This recipes is one of the way I use a boiled chicken after I made my chicken stock. You can find more recipes in the article: 4 Quick and Healthy Dinner Ideas: Reviving a Boiled Chicken

      One of my favorite salad, I particularly appreciate that you didn't leave the big lettuce stems which I don't like and are the reason why I don't order this salad in restaurants lol. Love your dressing and will make it next time.
