How to Make Low FODMAP Salad (So easy!)

Fresh, fast, and delicious! Chicken Salad with avocado and Honey Mustard Dressing
  1. Start with leftover chicken. This can be rotisserie chicken or cooked chicken breasts.
  2. Gather your greens. I used romaine lettuce, but this rotisserie chicken salad would be fabulous with various leafy greens (i.e., arugula, baby spinach, chopped kale, Swiss chard…)
  3. Add the rainbow! Like purple cabbage, orange carrots, red tomatoes, & creamy green avocado. Or use whatever veggies you have on hand. The more, the crunchier!
  4. Sprinkle on some bling! I added my all-time favorite salad topper, pine nuts. You choose whatever YOU like, including slivered almonds, pumpkin seeds, walnuts, or sunflower seeds.
  5. Top it off with dressing. This rotisserie chicken salad goes perfectly with FODY Foods Maple Dijon Low FODMAP Salad Dressing, but you can drizzle on whatever you like, including my favorite Easy Homemade Viniagrette!

What to serve with this Low FODMAP Salad…

This low FODMAP salad is filling, and nourishing enough, to eat on it’s own, but if you want to complete your meal, serve it with fresh strawberries and your favorite gluten-free rolls. Like my family’s all-time favorite, “Best Ever Rolls” aka Pao de Quejo or Brazillian Cheese Puffs.

I promise you, they are well worth the few extra minutes it takes to make them!

Oh, and if you live with a furry four-legged friend, consider yourself forewarned that the tantalizing smell of juicy rotisserie chicken will lure him/her to your salad, so be sure and save a piece {or two} of chicken to share 🙂

    1. Hi Matt~That’s wonderful to hear! It’s a favorite at my house too. I swap the grapes with apples depending upon what fruit I have on hand. I’ve even made a vegetarian version with plant based chicken for my daughter and she loves it too. Cheers!

  1. This salad looks wonderful with all of this colors. Thank you for sharing this!

  2. This is one gorgeous salad! I make my own salad dressings, but every so often I need a quick fix and love Annie’s and Newmans.

  3. Your dog is adorabl and you chose the perfect name for this colorful salad. I am such a salad lover, I must give this a try. It looks and sounds delicious!

  4. That is my favorite Annie’s dressing! I’ve been in a salad rut lately and I think it resulted from not having a good salad dressing (homemade or not) around to spruce things up a bit. Now I may actually feel like a salad… 😉

  5. I love salads like this and that honey mustard dressing looks like a good one. What’s really catching my eye though are those Brazilian cheese puffs! Yum!

  6. Beautiful Spring Salad! Honey mustard is always a yummy go-to salad dressing 🙂

    1. Thanks Liz! I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the taste of the dressing, as so many bottled dressings, healthy or not, don’t appeal to me. It’s good to have something on hand that’s not only on the healthier side, but that also tastes good too 🙂

  7. Now this is what a call a salad! So vibrant and nutritious! I always recommend to customers to make their own dressing but do feel comfortable recommending that that dressing to customers too.

    1. Thanks so much Julie and glad you concur with my choice of salad dressing! I’m sure you’ve read a lot of salad dressing labels to know that there aren’t too many that pass muster 🙂

  8. Thanks so much Liz!! I would love to have you and Mr. CEO over for dinner soon so you don’t have to lick your computer screen 🙂 xoxo

  9. So simple EA but so elegant at the same time! As usual, that photo makes me want to eat my computer screen. I’d happily join your family any night of the week when you whip this up! I too RARELY buy dressings, but good to know that’s an option you enjoy and approve of. Thanks for doing the dirty work for us!
