Doesn't that look delicious?!  That's because it IS!  I saw this on America's Test Kitchen (Season 16, Episode 21 - Dinner in Cuba) and it's now my favorite fruit salad of all time.

I recommend watching the video so you can see how to cut the fruits properly.  

This recipe is definitely NOT Keto-friendly but it may be Paleo-friendly.  Again, check your guidelines.  

Whole30 looks okay with this one, minus the sugar.  Try it, it might be really great without the added sweetness.

A recurring favorite from my Recipe Keeper is Duke's Chicken Salad.

This salad is tangy, sweet, crunchy, and filling.  It has a whopping 63 grams of fat per serving!  The downfall is that it delivers 14 net carbs, all from sugar.  If you can replace the honey with a sugar substitute, you might have a Keto-friendly dish here.  Also, don't add the grapes.

This is also Paleo-friendly if you make homemade mayo.  There's a super simple, tasty recipe here.

Homemade mayo is the way to go if you want to comply with Whole 30 guidelines.  Again, check your guidelines to ensure you're staying on the plan.  You're putting in a lot of work to fall off the wagon over a salad.  A damn good salad, to be sure, but not worth throwing away all the progress you've made.

Go to Duke's website for this recipe.  Also check out their links for other tasty, simple eats such as their Chicken Curry Salad.

This salad gets 5 of 5 Mmms! from everyone I've ever made it for.

Happy eating and

Mmm!  Dinner!
