Working late? Need healthy dinner that actually makes you feel like you actually ate something? Watching carbs or need a gluten-free option? This is my go-to dinner and works well with a gluten-free bagel if I need to amp up the carbs. TraderJoes-friendly shopping list, with the exception of the Muruku... which is worth the experimentation if you've never tried it... https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=171642346299369

1

Arugula is pretty peppery and the trick is to pile a serving onto a plate and use your kitchen scissors (clean) to rough-cut the pile. It releases the flavor and brings out the crispness...
2

Add chicken, cut to bite-sized chunks.
3

Slice 1/4 to 1/2 a medium apple. If you're concerned about carbs counts, 1/4 medium apple is one serving @ about 15 grams of carbs.
4

Drizzle vinaigrette over chicken (absorbs the flavor) to taste. Top with fresh ground pepper and goat cheese crumbles.
5

Top with Muruku crunchies. Especially good for diabetics or those watching carbs, the Indian bean curd snack can be found at most food co-ops and is worth the monthly trek to keep a stash in your pantry.
