Notes

If you are meal prepping, store each component separately in an airtight container. // I used the Paleo Caesar dressing from Sprouts. It’s also Whole30 compatible. // Save yourself time by using a pre chopped salad greens. // If you don’t have an air fryer or a grill the chicken can be cooked stove top or in the oven. You could even use a toaster oven. // If you want a parmesan cheese look to your salad, feel free to add some nutritional yeast.
