Description

High protein quick lunch.

Ingredients

  • 3 oz pouch chicken breast
  • 1 pkt shelf stable balsamic dressing packet
  • 1⁄4 c finely chopped pecans

Instructions

Pack the nuts in a snack size bag and tuck in with the chicken and dressing pouches.

Rip the chicken pouch open, flex the bottom open so it makes a "bowl". Add in the nuts and dressing, stir well. Let sit for a couple minutes to meld flavors.

Eat out of pouch or as a sammie.

Notes

1/4 cup dried sweetened cranberries packed with the nuts gives a great texture.
On the dressing, use whatever shelf stable packet you prefer - ranch and buttermilk also work well. Look for a 1 ounce or close for size. Find online at www.minimus.biz or www.packitgourmet.com
The 3-ounce pouches of chicken are sold by Sweet Sue and can be found online at:

You can double the recipe and use a 7-ounce pouch of chicken found in most grocery stores.
