Easiest Tasty Chicken Lunch EVER

As I promised yesterday, here is what my fave lunch as of late looks like. It seriously is soooo tasty. I realize there is a lack of color. I ate it with a huge old serving of cherub grape tomatoes, but those got devoured while I was prepping this. :)
It's quite easy...
Ingredients:
1 can of Costco Kirkland Canned Chicken
2 TBS light Miracle Whip
1 tsp fresh ground black pepper...mix that all up.
I also made some Baked Tortilla Chips made from a La Tortilla Factory Whole wheat tortilla.
 
The stats for this little number are great and it is so filling...330 calories, 10 grams of fat, 54 grams of protein, and 14 grams of fiber.

It would be a great lunch to take with you to work or anywhere you need it to be portable, really. It would also be great wrapped up in the tortilla, served on whole wheat bread, or even over salad and veggies. It is just plain good. I was imagining that you might be able to make it with greek yogurt if you don't mind that sour creamy taste. I don't think I'd care for it too much, but just a thought. It would be a protein phenomenon if you did.

What is your favorite easy lunch? Do you eat at lunch at home or do you have to take it on the go?

  5. Yum! I pack my lunch every single day and almost always have a turkey sandwhich, hard boiled egg, and string cheese. Lately I have been stuck with pb&j because I am out of groceries. ha!

    I really need to branch out and be more creative. Thanks for sharing. :)

  10. I love this chicken salad - it is basically what I took for lunch at least once a week this past school year (either chicken or tuna). Lately I have been making tuna with part light mayo and part garlic hummus. It is so amazingly creamy and delicious - I love it! I also make fried eggs a lot and put them on an English muffin with homemade tomato jam and laughing cow cheese.
