Ingredients

1 package Abbot’s Chopped Chick’n

½ cup vegan buffalo sauce (try Primal Kitchen)

1 tablespoon maple syrup or vegan honey

½ block Nuts for Cheese Super Blue, crumbled

6 ounces mixed greens

1 medium carrot, grated

2 stalks celery, sliced on the bias

1 avocado, sliced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

2 baby cucumbers, sliced and quartered

1/3 cup vegan ranch

Sliced Scallions, to serve (optional)

Description

Our favorite appetizer just became a full meal. Crisp, cool greens meet our tender and juicy Fajita Chick’n and creamy, crumbled vegan bleu cheese. Crunchy carrots and celery sticks are a must, along with a bounty of summer produce. Dig in.

Method

  1. Cook the Chick’n according to package instructions. When the Chick’n is golden brown, stir in the buffalo sauce and maple syrup. Cook for 1-2 minutes more then turn off heat.

  2. Assemble the salad. Place a bed of greens on a large platter. Arrange the vegetables, buffalo Chick’n, and cheese in neat rows across the greens. Drizzle with the vegan ranch. Sprinkle with scallions. Serve with pita chips, if desired.
