Heirloom Tomato and Chicken Toss

Recipe Description

This Heirloom Tomato and Chicken Toss is a really tasty way to use up leftover roast chicken. It’s really healthy too. I always choose really ripe heirloom tomatoes when I make this salad. I love heirloom tomatoes for their weird and wonderful shapes and flavors. I always try to pick up a variety of different colors too if possible. 

To make this salad couldn’t be easier – I whisk up a quick dressing of vinegar, olive oil, sugar, salt and pepper. Then I mix it with chicken, tomatoes, onion, basil, chives, parsley, and thyme together in one of my favorite salad bowls. Hey presto – a delicious salad ready in only 10 minutes!

To make the Heirloom Tomato and Chicken Toss, you will need the following ingredients:
