    How to make PP Caesar Salad with chicken? Prepare the necessary ingredients. For salad, fillet is best suited as the most dietary part of chicken. Mozzarella can be replaced with another soft cheese (Adyghe, cheese) or take a hard cheese with a low fat content (no more than 25%). Instead of cherry, you can use ordinary tomatoes. One medium fruit will be enough. Boil the egg hard-boiled for 7-8 minutes. Cool the boiled egg in cold water.

    Wash the chicken fillet, dry it, add a little salt. Wrap the fillets in foil or a sleeve. Bake the chicken in a preheated 180C oven for 25 minutes. Cool the finished fillet.

PP Caesar salad with chicken, I think, can be attributed to PP recipes. It is balanced in the composition of nutrients. Gentle cooking of chicken (baking in the oven) is the most acceptable way of cooking any meat for a healthy diet. Fillet contains proteins necessary for the renewal and repair of body cells. Greens and tomatoes are rich in fiber and vitamins. A sufficient amount of greens and vegetables increases the beneficial properties of the dish. A salad is being prepared without mayonnaise. Olive oil-based dressing enriches it with healthy fatty acids.

It is very important to use fresh and high-quality products for cooking. This is the key to getting the maximum benefit from the salad.

It is not recommended to store such a salad, so prepare it for one meal.

It is important to realize that there are no recipes or products in nature that are certainly useful to all people or unconditionally harmful to everyone. As with medicines, and in nutrition, there are indications and contraindications, daily individual consumption rates and for most people all this is very personalized. At the same time, there are a lot of myths “about proper nutrition” (for example: fat is bad), which distort the very essence of this concept and in such a distorted form are distributed on the Internet and the media. Therefore, remember that any “PP recipe” will be related to proper nutrition only conditionally, it should not be perceived as a dogma. And even if the author of the recipe, a “healthy nutrition specialist” or a nutritionist and fitness trainer calls something useful (PP) or harmful, it may not be so for you personally.
The opinion of the site administration about proper nutrition may not coincide with the opinion of the author of the PP recipe!
