a generous sprinkling of each - garlic powder, paprika, and salt & pepper
10-16 ounces baby spinach or spring mix
1 large apple cored and thinly sliced*
1 cup blueberries or another favorite fruit - sliced strawberries, halved raspberries, pomegranate seeds, diced pears

1 batch balsamic vinaigrette (may not use all of it)

Steps:

  • To make chicken (if using): Preheat oven to 450ºF. Season chicken and bake for 17-20 minutes, (or until 165 degrees internally). Once cooked, cover with foil for 10 minutes to seal in the juices.
