Chicken Finger Salad with Chipotle Ranch Dressing

Ok, so I don't know if this meal really classifies as a recipe.  But it is fast and leaves you happy.  Well, at least for me it did. Which is saying a lot since I am pregnant(and you know how picky pregnant people are!).  So give this simple dish a try.  It will leave your tummy and your waistline; unless you are pregnant, happy.  (o:

Shopping List:
1) Frozen Chicken Tenders or Fresh from the Deli (about 3 for each person is good)

2) Ranch Dressing Packet

3) Chipotle Seasoning

4) Sour Cream

5) Fresh Dill

6) Favorite Lettuce (I like Romaine)

7) Salad Toppings: Tomatoes, Cucumbers, Carrots, Onions, whatever your heart desires

***********************************************************************************

To Begin:

Start by making the salad dressing the night before.  I add light sour cream instead of mayo, so follow directions for amount of sour cream and then add to the mixture 2 teaspoons chipotle seasoning, and 1 to 2 tablespoons fresh chopped dill.  You can also add a dash of paprika for extra flavor.  Stir and leave in container in fridge over night.

Then before dinner start chicken tenders in oven.  They usually take about 20 minutes.

Clean and wash lettuce and veggies.  Chop, dice and cut items.

Once tenders are done cut into pieces and top over lettuce and veggies.  Drizzle with dressing and enjoy!
