Healthy Chicken Caesar Salad - Meal Prep Recipe


My Chicken Caesar Salad Recipe was utterly divine but it is a serious calorie fest, certainly not a healthy salad.  I've changed the recipe and made a healthy version with more vegetables and a lot less calories.  I won't claim that it tastes as good but the flavours are there and this one come's without a side order of guilt.


Tools and Ingredients:
Lettuce 49p
Peppers £1.15
Sweetcorn 37p
Cucumber 49p
Tomatoes 69p
Chicken £3.38
Light Mayonnaise 30p
Lemon Juice 17p
Dijon Mustard 18p
Anchovies £1.06
Garlic Powder 23p
New Potatoes £1.00

Total = £9.51
Makes 10 generous portions = 95p per portion

Start by chopping the new potatoes into bite sized chunks and putting them on to boil.


Shred the lettuce.


Dice the cucumber.


Chop the peppers.


And dice the tomatoes.


Mix all the vegetables together along with the sweetcorn.


To make the delicious dressing mince the anchovies.


Add about half a bottle of lemon juice.


And about half a jar of Dijon mustard.


Then add about half a bottle of mayonnaise.  To keep the calorie count low I'm using low fat mayonnaise.


Finally add half a jar of garlic granuales.


Give it all a good stir.


And mix in the chicken breast pieces.


Drain the potatoes.


Store the salad, potatoes and Chicken Caesar separately to keep them fresh for longer.  They should last for about 5 days in the fridge in sealed containers.

Chicken Caesar Salad Recipe - Meal Prep Lunch

Stale Bread 25p
Olive Oil 26p
Chicken £2.99

Anchovies £1.06
Garlic 16p

I'm making my own croutons from old crusts of bread that I've been saving in the freezer.

I've chopped the bread into little squares.


Then popped them in the air fryer with a lug of olive oil.

They took about 15 minuted to get good and fried.


Next I prepared the dressing, starting with dicing the garlic.

Dried garlic would also have done the job.


Next the anchovies chopped up tiny and added to the garlic along with all of their oil.

I'm using an old (clean) jam jar to make up my dressing.  It's got a nice wide next that's easy to pour things into and a secure lid for shaking the dressing later.


Half a jar of Dijon mustard next.


And half a bottle of mayonnaise - the cause of the calorie fest!!


Then half a bottle of lemon juice.


Then it's time to dice and fry the chicken.  I'm using a massive pan here because I'll be needing it later and want to save on the washing up, normally I'd use a smaller pan.


While the cicken is cooking I've chopped the lettuce.


The chicken is nicely cooked through.


Then it's just a matter of mixing the ingredients.

If you're batch cooking I'd advise storing the individual components of the salad separately in sealed tubs in the fridge.  This will help them last longer.


Just look at all that scummy dressing!!


It was utterly divine and definitely my new go to summer pot luck recipe.
