Weds night, we picked up dinner at Wendy's. I decided to skip my standard fries (gasp!) cuz it was SOOOOOO nice out Weds. Got an Apple Pecan Chicken Salad instead, and oh my goodness.... DELICIOUS! Seriously. So when I went to the store to pick up ice cream later that evening, definitely picked up the stuff to make my own. I think they turned out pretty well, too!
I used Romaine Hearts as the base, because I have a bag that needs to be used up. In the original, I think they used a Spring Mix or something similar. Anywho... Baked chicken breast, seasoned lightly with Tuscan Seasoning Blend, a tart, crisp apple cut into bite sized chunks (don't remember which kind exactly...), crumbled light bleu cheese, and roasted pecans (I bought plain pecan chips, tossed them with a little Olivio and sea salt and baked em at 350 for 5 mins or so- worked quite well). Topped it all with a Fat Free Raspberry Vinaigrette (Wendy's: Pomegranate Vinaigrette). The Wendy's version also had a couple dried cranberries, I think, but I forgot to add those to mine and didn't really miss em.
My salad, in one of my Hello Kitty bowls. I put the chicken in a silicone cup so I could take it out and warm it up in the microwave, which worked quite well..
Dante's: Same salad, plus a baked chicken breast.
Anywho... that wraps up the bentos for this week. Didn't take one Friday.
Have a great weekend!
