Avocado Yogurt Chicken Salad
This chicken salad is one of my favorite lunches. The red grapes and walnuts are not only delicious but add huge benefits. Walnuts stimulate adiponectin. Adiponectin is a hormone secreted by fat (an adipokine) that plays a major role in insulin sensitivity and the ability to gain muscle and get lean. You want walnuts in your diet since they're a powerful food! Red onions feed your microbes, and red grapes have polyphenols, which are potent immunomodulators. which means they help to boost your immune system. Avocados are a good source of vitamins C, E, K, and B6, as well as riboflavin, niacin, folate, pantothenic acid, magnesium, and potassium. They also provide lutein, beta-carotene, and omega-3 fatty acids. If you haven't tried my L reuteri superfood yogurt, then you're missing out. It's thicker than Greek Yogurt, and the health benefits are incredible. Check out this article: L. Reuteri Superfood Yogurt I Love! Its a super fast, easy, and delicious lunch that helps the body in so many ways!!
