BBQ Chicken Chopped Salad

This new Summer salad is full of flavor and is bound to be on repeat!

Try my new BBQ Chicken Chopped Salad soon.

This post is sponsored by Cookies BBQ Sauce & Seasonings, but all opinions are my own.

There is no doubt in my mind that we eat more salads in the warmer months. It’s just more fun, right? Produce is fresh and abundant + when we are hot, lighter meals are easier to make and eat.


The problem is salads can very easily be BORING.


But not this one!


My new BBQ Chicken Chopped Salad has everything you want – a flavorful protein, a sweet + salty ingredient combo and lots of juicy, fresh produce.

Cookies and I have embarked on a 3-part foodie series and this second installment for Summer is for all my salad lovers!


Remember our first creation was my Barbecue Chicken Pizza Rollups. A fun combo of store-bought pizza dough, shredded chicken, BBQ sauce, cheese and seasonings all baked together until bubbly. That one targeted all our pizza fans.


Today we are showcasing salad in a unique way – one with tender, juicy barbecue chicken, drizzled with an easy honey barbecue vinaigrette.

For this recipe, we decided to coat the chicken tenders in their Flavor Enhancer prior to cooking, then brush them with Cookies Sweet Hickory barbecue sauce before plating. This sauce has a splash of pineapple juice with hints of cayenne pepper to create a thick, sweet and zesty barbecue sauce.


One of my favorites personally!


Cookies Flavor Enhancer seasoning is something I always try to keep in my pantry. We use it on proteins, roasted potatoes in the oven, grilled vegetables and so much more. It’s the perfect blend of salt, pepper, chili powder and garlic.
