How Do I Make Rescue Salad?

Here is how you make Rescue Salad:

My rescue salad is something I prep and take with me so that when I get that urge I have something to munch on that's healthy inbetween meals so that I don't go nuts. :) One Cornish game hen will yield about 4 servings. If you buy a package of chicken breast then however much chicken you buy you divide up and pre-wrap/measure into 4 oz servings using a kitchen scale after its been cooked. I put servings in the fridge and always have lettuce easy to grab. Be aware that most normal skinless chicken breasts are about 6-7 oz of meat cooked. If you follow this recipe exactly, you'll weigh in with less than 200 calories on this meal and know that prepping a little once a week can go a long way towards meeting diet goals!Boil water with salt and place in chicken breasts as desired. (Good broth to save as well for night time beverage with minimum calories). Boil for about 10-15 minutes or long enough for chicken to be cooked through. If you leave it on to cook for too long the meat will be dry and not as moist. Pre-wash salad and arrange 2 cups of lettuce bed on plate. Take half of one small lemon and squeeze lemon juice on salad. When Chicken breast is ready, shred 4 oz chicken over salad and season with Mrs. Dash and use hot sauce instead of salad dressing to "kick it up a notch". Makes one very savory and flavorful snack.
