Mrs. Fit's Spicy Southwest Spinach Chicken Salad

Hey clean eaters! Today this recipe is to make use out of left overs. I love this recipe and actually had
 
it for lunch today. It was so tangy, spicy with just the right kick. It's really clean and will definitely
 
help keep that metabolism up! Hope you like it as much as I do.
 
Ingredients for dressing:(single serving)
 
2 Tbsp. Organic or homemade salsa (without sodium or very little)
 
1 tsp.-1 1/2tsp. Hot sauce of your choice or organic ketchup(if you don't like spicy)
 
1tsp. Lite Balsalmic dressing
 
1 tsp. Lemon juice (fresh and organic if you can)
 
 
Directions:  Mix together ingredients well and set aside. * I keep a batch of this dressing in my fridge just to make it easier. It tastes good on a lot of things.
 
 
Salad:
 
3 oz. baby spinach or 50/50 mix (organic if you can)
 
5 oz. lean chicken, turkey, or tuna in water
(This recipe is really good with the salsa crockpot chicken)
 
Any other veggies you want (tomatoes, cucumbers, shredded carrots)
 
For added carbs use 1/4 c. organic black beans
 
 Directions: Place spinach on large plate flat. Then lay cubed or shredded meat over spinach. Add desired veggies. Feel feel to add as much veggies as you want. Next drizzle dressing mix over salad until you have desired amount. You may or may not use all the dressing and that's fine. Store left over dressing in fridge. Happy Clean eating :)
