Chicken Salad with Lemon-Mustard Dressing
Chicken Salad with Lemon Mustard Dressing is a wholesome and vibrant dish. The combination of tender chicken, creamy egg, crisp bell pepper, and fresh greens creates a satisfying mix of flavours and textures, while the lemon mustard dressing brings everything together with a bright, zesty finish. It’s a light yet filling meal, perfect for a nutritious lunch or a light dinner, offering an excellent balance of protein, healthy fats, and vegetables that keep you full and energized.
The combination of chicken and eggs ensures a good dose of protein, making the salad very filling and great for muscle repair and energy. The lettuce, bell peppers, and green beans are all rich in fiber, vitamins (such as A, C, and K), and antioxidants, promoting overall health. The olive oil in the dressing provides beneficial monounsaturated fats, while the egg yolk adds some natural fats, making the salad balanced.
