Ingredients

2 cups leafy greens (romaine lettuce, kale, etc.), shredded

1 cup (red or green) seedless grapes, cut in half

1 cup chicken, cooked and chopped

1/3 cup crispy chow mein noodles

1/3 cup carrots, shredded

2 tablespoons green onion, sliced

2 tablespoons light Asian salad dressing

2 whole wheat pita pockets, cut in half

Instructions

  1. Before you begin, wash your hands, surfaces, vegetables, fruit, and utensils.
  2. Combine all ingredients except the pitas in a medium bowl and stir to combine.
  3. Divide the chicken mixture evenly among the four whole wheat pitas.

Tips

  • If you can’t find light Asian salad dressing in stores or if you would prefer to make your own, combine ¼ cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar, ½ tablespoon sesame oil, ½ tablespoon soy sauce, ½ tablespoon honey. Use 2 tablespoons to “dress” the pita filling and store the rest in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
