Last week I gave you Chicken Chop Chop Salad with Creamy Mango Vinaigrette. This week, I am sharing BBQ Chicken Salad with Buttermilk Ranch Dressing.

BBQ Chicken Chop Salad

I figured that if you are anything like my family that maybe you like to barbeque chicken in the summer time? And if you barbeque chicken, then chances are that you might have some extra chicken left over on a regular basis?

BBQ Chicken Chop Salad

I always turn mine into a salad the next day, and this has been one of the best. Crunch cabbage and lettuce, juicy tomatoes, shredded chicken and creamy blue cheese. Then the whole thing is drizzled with a tangy Buttermilk Ranch Dressing. Spiked with fresh herbs. I always think salads like this are awesome dinner salads, the kind that you can sit down and have a one bowl meal, you know? I hope you like this as much as I did!
