Easy and Delicious Grilled Chicken Shawarma Salad

Super excited to say that after 4 years I’m back to pre-pregnancy weight! It’s been a looongggg journey with many ups and downs, both life and number wise lol, but finally here. And amazing easy salads like this are part of the reason! Trader Joe’s salad options are king, and there marinated meats make it complete and tasty. If your really crunched for time can always get prepared proteins to add, but I wanted to try this shawarma for awhile now, and it did not disappoint.

Get your chicken on

Ready to grill shawarma chicken thighs! Just open and cook! I’m normally terrible with over cooking chicken/steak, just get so nervous about it being too raw! The ninja indoor grill with smart thermometer is a life saver and so easy to use. Just set the grill to what your cooking, let it preheat, insert the thermometer into the middle of you meat, and follow instructions! It tells you when to flip, remove, and how long it should rest :0 And its actually right! Used to for these thighs and they came out perfect! Flavor is more mild then when you get shawarma but still have the same spices. Big fan of this chicken!

Get your greens on

Salad time! I always mix some regular lettuce in with my chopped salad bags, less calories, stretches the bag to multiple meals, and more greens for you. They come with tons of toppings and dressings, usually get 3 meal size salads from these two bags and dressing is enough for 2 (I use oil/vinegar for the last).This BBQ black pepper one is full of flavor, the dressing makes you feel like a BBQ. It works perfect with the shawarma and the cornbread croutons add great crunch. Perfect light meal for a BBQ day that your actually happy to eat! Hope you try it sometime, and what are your favorite salads?
