BBQ Chicken Salad- Romaine lettuce and broccoli slaw topped with bbq chicken.
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!
