Keep your kitchen cool and get dinner on the table quick with this hunger satisfying southern BBQ chicken salad with BBQ ranch dressing!
Check out this awesome dinner salad! With the weather getting nicer we just want to play outside! My southern bbq chicken salad makes a quick and delicious dinner! Even my 8 year old loved this salad! Topped with barbecue ranch dressing and chili lime tortilla strips for a bit of a kick this healthy dinner salad was just what we needed to satisfy our hunger and get us back outside playing!
Other than chopping, slicing and dicing there isn’t much work needed to make this amazing dinner salad. I like to get all the ingredients ready and put these salads together assembly line style.
Layer the toppings over the green in any order you like. Drizzle with barbecue ranch and you’re all set. Don’t hesitate to try the barbecue ranch dressing. It may sound weird but it adds an amazing twist to this salad.
