    Salads with Chicken

    I've collected some of my favorite and most delicious chicken salad recipes to share with you. Grab a fork and let's dive in!

    Close up of slad with chicken, avocado, cucumbers, tomatoes and parmesan cheese.

    Chicken Avocado Caprese Salad

    This dinner salad is a play on caprese salad with tomatoes. However, it's also got chicken, avocado, cucumbers, and parmesan cheese - plus a sprinkle of sesame seeds. This is a great low carb option!

    Bowl of Copycat Panera Strawberry Poppyseed Salad with chicken, fruit and nuts.

    Copycat Strawberry Poppyseed Salad

    This is one of my favorite chicken salads because of all the delicious fresh fruit. Plus the light and creamy poppyseed dressing on top of the salad is so good! If you're into healthy eating, this salad is for you.

    Chicken Cobb Salad

    I'm in love with this hearty salad loaded with cherry tomatoes, bacon, hard boiled eggs, avocado and grilled chicken. And, I might be bias, but I think that this is one of the best cobb salad recipes you'll ever try!

    Spinach and Strawberry Salad

    With lots of fresh strawberries, baby spinach, red onion, slivered almonds, feta cheese, and creamy avocado, this chicken salad truly is a complete meal.

    Switch it up and add blueberries or even apples depending on what fruit is in season. This has a Greek yogurt dressing, but would also be good with red wine vinaigrette.

    Buffalo Chicken Salad

    This incredible salad start with our Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Recipe. It's super easy (and great for those that like to meal prep). You'll love the tangy blue cheese with all the fresh salad ingredients like slices of red bell pepper and shredded carrots, on top of romaine lettuce. I like a little squirt of lime juice on my buffalo chicken salad so I always add lime wedges.

    Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad

    You only need a few simple ingredients for this classic chicken salad - grilled chicken (or any leftover chicken), parmesan cheese and lots of black pepper. Although, you could toss on a few grape tomatoes or red onions if you have some on hand. My husband loves to add black olives to his salad!

    Mandarin Orange Salad with Chicken

    This big salad is one of my favorite easy recipes. Sliced boneless skinless chicken breasts with sweet mandarin oranges and crunchy chow mein noodles on top of mixed salad greens is just so good! I like mine with diced green onions on top.

    This is a different dressing too, I love the combination of fresh ginger, soy sauce and poppy seeds!

    Buffalo Chicken Pasta Salad

    Even though this isn't a traditional salad recipe, I had to include it. I mean, it's a pasta salad with buffalo chicken - what's not to love about that?! This is really good with some black beans or fresh corn kernals, also.

    Dressings and Vinaigrettes

    • Southwest Chipotle Dressing
    • Avocado Lime Ranch Dressing
    • Lemon-Shallot Vinaigrette
    • Cruet with Lemon Vinaigrette Salad Dressing drizzling onto salad.
    • Southwest Dressing in a small jar next to a salad.
    • Homemade Buttermilk Ranch Dressing in a cruet next to vegetables.
    • Caesar Dressing Without Anchovies in a cruet with stopper.
