🍏 “Winner Winner Chicken Apple Dinner” Veggie Bowl
“Because apples and chicken belong together like bad puns and food blogs.”
🥗 Ingredients (Serves 2–4)
🥬 The Base:
• 2 cups mixed greens (spinach, arugula, kale, whatever makes you feel superior at brunch)
• ½ cup shredded purple cabbage (adds crunch and flair)
🍗 The Protein:
• 1½ cups roasted chicken, shredded or chopped (leftovers or store-bought rotisserie = chef’s kiss)
🍏 The Sweet + Fresh:
• 1 crisp apple (Honeycrisp or Granny Smith), thinly sliced
• ¼ cup dried cranberries or golden raisins (optional, but they make you feel fancy)
• ¼ cup crumbled feta or goat cheese (optional, but your taste buds might thank you)
🥕 The Crunch:
• ½ cup shredded carrots
• ¼ cup toasted pecans or walnuts (bonus points if you don’t eat half of them while cooking)
🫙 Maple Mustard Dressing (A Hug in Liquid Form):
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tsp maple syrup or honey
• Salt & pepper to taste
Joke break:
Why did the chicken sit next to the apple?
Because it heard it was the apple of its thigh. 🍗❤️🍏
👩🍳 Instructions
- Roast or shred your chicken if it’s not already cooked. Pro tip: steal some from last night’s dinner like a true kitchen rebel.
- Chop all your veggies and apples like you’re on a cooking show with dramatic music in the background.
- Toss your greens and cabbage into a big bowl like you mean it.
- Layer in the carrots, apples, chicken, and cranberries. Top with nuts and cheese (if using). You should be looking at a bowl worthy of its own Pinterest board.
- Whisk together the dressing ingredients. Taste it and say “Mmm” aloud even if nobody’s watching.
- Drizzle that golden goodness over your bowl and toss gently, or leave it on the side if you’re into dipping, dripping, or dressing control.
