Sweet, salty and crunchy – it’s all in here

Tender chunks of Applegate Naturals®Grilled Chicken Breast Strips get all fancied up with the addition of fresh blueberries and pleasantly pungent rosemary in this Whole30-friendly Blueberry Chicken Salad with Rosemary. At first it may seem odd to add blueberries to chicken salad, but they’re actually the perfect way to add just a hint of sweetness, gorgeous color and cancer-fighting antioxidants. The same goes for rosemary, an often overlooked herb but one that has a distinct and pine-like flavor that pairs beautifully with sweet and savory alike. Top that off with some omega-3 rich walnuts and you’ve got yourself a superfood chicken salad! You’re going to love the burst of flavor you get with every bite!

The video below will show you just how easy it is to make this recipe.
