packed lunches - simple salad

One of my favorite lunches to pack is a simple lettuce salad, with chicken. This one is pretty easy, and I think it's healthy! (Depends on how much cheese and dressing you use I guess!)

I cook the chicken at the beginning of the week, usually seasoning it with oregano or rosemary, and keep it in the fridge, or the freezer if I make a lot.

Then I put about half of a cooked chicken breast in the bottom of a plastic container and fill the rest up with lettuce. (sometimes I add a little bit of cheese as well)

I pack the dressing on the side, and include a piece of fruit or a yogurt, and a can of diet soda.

Total cost: $2.10

*A small note: I use the bags of lettuce, the mixed kind. This meal would be cheaper if I bought the heads of lettuce, iceberg and romaine, but we just don't use it all if I do that.
