Steps:
- Preheat your BBQ to medium-high. Mix the BBQ sauce, honey, and salt in a medium-sized bowl then add the chicken breasts and coat them in the marinade. Let them marinate while you chop the veggies and prepare the dressing.
- Put the salad dressing ingredients in a blender and blend on high until smooth. If needed, add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dressing is pourable.
- Pile all of the salad ingredients into a large salad bowl.
- When your grill is hot, put on the chicken breasts. Let them cook for 6 minutes then baste them with some of the marinade and flip them over to cook for another 6-8 minutes on the other side, or until they are no longer pink inside and reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

CHICKEN SALAD WITH RASPBERRY VINAIGRETTE
I have been trying to eat more fruits and vegetables, so salads have been on the menu almost every day. I've gotten tired of the same old.. same old.. I don't think I can look another piece of lettuce in the eye for quite some time, so this is what I came up with. Feel free to add or delete fruits and veggies as you see fit. This adjusts easily to make more than one serving. I find this to be 1 main dish serving, or two servings if being served along with something else. Easily adapted to Vegan.. just leave out the chicken, or replace with seasoned tofu.
