INGREDIENTS:

  • White potato - 1 medium (160 grams)
  • Rotisserie chicken, cooked, skinless, light and dark meat combined - 6 oz (170 grams)
  • Green beans (string beans), chopped - 3/4 cup (86 grams)
  • Red onion, chopped - 3 tbsp (30 grams)
  • Cashews, raw and unsalted - 1 oz (28 grams)

INGREDIENTS FOR DRESSING:

  • Greek yogurt, non-fat, plain - 2 oz (56 grams)

  • Red wine vinegar - 1/2 tbsp (8 grams)
  • Agave syrup - 1/2 tsp (4 grams)
  • Olive oil - 1 tsp (4 grams)
  • Sea salt - 1/8 tsp (pinch)
  • Black pepper - 1/8 tsp (pinch)

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Boil the potato: Fill a small pot with water halfway and set to boil. Peel and chop the potato into small cubes. Add them to the pot and boil for about 10-12 minutes. Don’t overcook them or they will get mushy (you want them to have a bit of bite left in them). Drain the water when cooked. Set aside to let them cool down to about room temperature.
  2. Prepare the remaining ingredients. Shred the rotisserie chicken. Lightly steam or boil the green beans or unfreeze if using frozen. Chop the red onion.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix all of the ingredients for the mustard dressing.
  4. Add all ingredients to a bowl and gently mix in the mustard dressing. Serve and enjoy!
