Warm salad with smoked chicken and bacon - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can use grilled chicken, turkey, or even shrimp for a different flavor. Smoked tofu is a great vegetarian alternative.
Romaine, spinach, or mixed greens work well as substitutes. For a crunchier texture, try kale or shredded cabbage.
Use sugar-free ketchup or tomato paste mixed with a bit of vinegar and sweetener. Alternatively, try a mustard-based dressing for fewer carbs.
Store it in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Keep the dressing separate to prevent the greens from wilting.
Absolutely! Skip the chicken and bacon, and add smoked tofu, avocado, or roasted chickpeas for protein and flavor.
Quickly reheat them in a pan over medium heat for 1-2 minutes to maintain texture. Avoid microwaving, as they may become soggy.
Sure! Bell peppers, cucumbers, or roasted sweet potatoes would add color and extra nutrients.
Double or triple the ingredients, but keep the dressing proportional to avoid overdressing. Serve the dressing on the side for flexibility.
Freezing isn’t recommended, as the fresh greens and tomatoes will lose texture. Prepare and store components separately if needed.
