Quick and easy Southwest Chicken Salad that is packed with flavor the whole family is going to love!

Somedays time gets away from me and before I know it, it is dinner time. So I am desperately trying to figure out a balanced meal that I can toss together quickly. I usually have Tyson® Grilled & Ready® Chicken on hand because the chicken is simple to make and full of protein. I also use Wish-Bone® Italian Dressing due to the robust and zesty flavor. Both of these items help make a flavorful quick meal and I can easily pick them up at my local Walmart. That is why I chose to use them in my southwest chicken salad.

Once I had the chicken and dressing, then it is just a matter of grabbing a couple other ingredients to toss in the salad and we had a delicious meal.

When I first tried this Southwest Chicken Salad, I was unsure if the boys would eat it. They can be picky when it comes to food. I am happy to report that it passed the picky eaters test!
