BBQ chicken salad is the perfect way to get delicious bbq flavor without extra carbs from the typical side dishes. This version includes lots of filling veggies along with a tasty dressing.

After finishing up my last recipe, baked egg rolls, I was left with almost a half package of egg roll wrappers. Instead of making more egg rolls, I decided to try to find other ways to use them. I cut some into strips and baked to create a deliciously crunchy salad topping! Each wrapper is about 11 grams carbohydrate and adds a great texture. I’m sure they would work well on other foods such as soups, casseroles, etc. Enjoy!
