The flavors, textures and nutrition of this Paleo Mexican Chicken Salad are epic.
The first time I made this salad at home and took a bite, my eyes opened wide and I kid you not, I chewed extra quickly to be able to get that second bite in. I had to double check and make sure the gloriousness was real, real.
During those chewing moments, my mind blocked out every sense, other than my sense of taste, so that I could focus on that insane taste bud experience. It was great food moment for me.
Immediately after finishing those first bites, I knew I had to re-make the recipe, video it, photograph it and upload it on the blog for you all to have. I felt like it was my duty to share it with you. It’s kind of a crime to keep good things like these a secret.
So here I am, proud and excited to share this delicious recipe with you.
Dang, those colors and textures. If I were to be a salad, I’d chose to be exactly this one.
Because when Mother Nature gives you such a crazy array of sizes and colors and textures, why would we ever chose just a few?
Especially when they mix so well together.
I am not usually one to boast, but I feel like I have reeeeally outdone myself with this recipe. It’s probably one of my best Paleo salad recipes ever, and I think that you should make it for you and your favorite humans. Because our favorite humans deserve the best.
And this is the best.
Go out grocery shopping, get the juiciest cherry tomatoes, a few good ripe avocados, some gorgeous leafy greens and get on salad making. Turn up some funky tunes at home, open the windows to let that fresh Spring air in, and have FUN with it. The way home-cooking is meant to be. And then, when all is said and done, slow down, open a nice bottle of wine and sit to enjoy a peaceful and well deserved meal that is to nourish you and bring you joy.

This is an awesome recipe. I made the chipotle chicken the day before using a separate recipe. Next time, will put lime juice in the dressing instead of vinegar & omit the water, and then omit the lemon juice on the romaine lettuce.
Hi Hilary! Glad to know you liked it, thanks for sharing!
