Barbeque Chicken Salad
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cooked and chopped (organic is best!)
Salad is great even without any chicken!
2 small heads leaf lettuce, such as Romaine, chopped
2 cucumbers, sliced, quartered
2 avocados, chopped
3-4 stalks green onion, sliced
2-3 c frozen corn
1 can black beans, drained
1-2 oz Monterrey Jack cheese, shredded, omit for healthier version!
1/3 c agave nectar
1/3 c vinegar, any kind, we use red wine or rice wine, and I bet plain would work too!
1/3 c barbeque sauce, omit for sugar-free dish
Chop and combine ingredients, and enjoy!
We make this salad without chicken or cheese, and it's still super yummy! You could too, or try using a smaller quantity of each. WHY bother? READ HERE!
AGAVE NECTAR is an alternative to refined sugar, but it still works pretty similarly to sugar in our bodies. In other words, it should be treated as a sugar, with plenty of calories and blood-sugar raising effects.

Agave and vinegar are a healthy alternative to barbeque sauce but it's not the same taste. It DOES give the salad a nice sweet taste, and allows you to avoid refined sugar :)
