One of the things that’s really important to me is making sure I bring a lunch to work every day. It’s healthier, faster, and let’s face it – cheaper. Eating out is expensive!
Since I’m trying to watch what I’m eating, I have a repertoire of a few salads that I take for lunch all the time. This one is inspired by one I used to pick up at Costco. I was buying it a lot, and then it disappeared over the holidays, so I figured out how to make it on my own! This easy salad is so good – really fresh and filling with lots of good protein on top from the chicken. A lot of people would call this a Chinese salad too, because of the flavors. Enjoy!

- 1/3 roasted unsalted cashews
- 1 Tbsp black sesame seeds
