Turkey and Green Bean Salad [Bulkbites.com]
- Servings: 4
- Time: 15 minutes
The best part with this lunch dish is that it can be made either with turkey or chicken. However, I have preferred turkey over chicken as I like it that way. In a way, this dish is an excellent way to utilize the leftovers.
You can choose celery for this dish instead of bell pepper. You can also add toasted almonds or dried cranberries to add a sweet touch to the dish.
Nutritious wise too, turkey and green bean salad is as good as it comes. It is low on calories but high on protein and carbs.
I recommend this dish for all bodybuilders and weight trainers as it can supply energy whilst helping them build muscle.
