Directions
For The Tri-Tip Bowl
This salad is a gourmet meal all on its own! We made this one with adults in mind, but adventurous kids may love it too!
For this recipe, we pre-cooked our tri-tip. To do this, we marinated the meat in Elda’s Kitchen Kentucky Bourbon Sauce and grilled it up to our preference.
In a large bowl, gently mix your arugula, butter lettuce, and romaine. Then add the following ingredients to the greens:
- ⅓ cup mushrooms
- ¼ cup garbanzo beans
- ½ cup tomatoes
- ¼ cup sweet yellow peppers
- A few pinches of cranberries
- A few pinches of bacon bits
- ½ cup of kidney beans
- ½ cup of pickled beets
Top everything with ¼ bottle of That’s Mine Organic Cherry Balsamic Dressing. Using two wooden spoons, gently mix everything to combine.
Time to plate your salad! Take a medium or large bowl and serve up as much salad as you’d like! Next, add several pieces of tri-tip across the top of your salad. Then, sprinkled with pecans, bleu cheese crumbles, and croutons. Drizzle with a little more That’s Mine Organic Cherry Balsamic and enjoy!
For The Chicken Salad Bowl
We made this bowl with kids in mind! Even pickier eaters will enjoy this fresh, colorful salad.
For this recipe, we marinated some non-breaded chicken tenders in an 8 oz bottle of That’s Mine Organic Italian Dressing and baked them in the oven until cooked through.
In a large bowl, gently mix your greens together. Then add the following ingredients:
- ½ cup cucumber
- ½ cup tomatoes
- ⅓ cup red kidney beans
- ¼ cup yellow peppers
- ⅓ cup olives
- ½ cup sunflowers seeds
Top everything with ¼ bottle of That’s Mine Organic Ranch Dressing. Using two wooden spoons, gently mix everything to combine.
Time to serve up! Take a large or medium bowl and serve as much salad as you’d like. Next, top with some of your chicken tenders. Finally, add some tortilla strips, drizzle a little more That’s Mine Organic Ranch Dressing and enjoy!
