Ingredients:

  • 1 cup baked or grilled chicken breast, chopped into cubes
  • 1/3 cup dry spelt berries
  • 2 tbsp walnut pieces
  • 1 apple (such as Golden Delicious or McIntosh)
  • 2 tbsp dried cranberries
  • 2 stalks celery, diced

Dressing:

  • 2 tbsp fat free plain Greek yogurt
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp all spice
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • ½ packet stevia

In a small saucepan, add 1/3 cup spelt berries and 3 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 1 hour. (Note: I recommend checking the pot every 30 mins, because the first time I tried this, I didn’t have nearly enough water and there was some major burning! 3 cups should be enough, but check occasionally just to make sure.)

Core apple and chop it into pieces. In a medium-large bowl, add chicken, walnut pieces, apple, dried cranberries, celery, and cooked spelt berries.

In a small bowl, mix together all ingredients for the dressing. Pour over salad and toss to combine, then serve.

Serves 2.
