Crispy Chicken Salad
Ingredients:

For Salad
4 cups mixed greens
2 Roma tomatoes, 1 diced and 1 chopped into wedges
1/4 cup crumbled fat-free feta cheese
2 slices extra-lean turkey bacon
1 tsp. reduced-fat Parmesan-style topping

For Crispy Chicken
3 oz. raw boneless skinless lean chicken breast
1/4 cup Fiber One bran cereal
1 tbsp. fat-free liquid egg substitute
2 tsp. reduced-fat Parmesan-style grated topping
1/4 tsp. Italian seasoning
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
Optional: salt, to taste

For Dressing
2 tbsp. fat-free ranch dressing
1/4-1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp. reduced-fat Parmesan-style topping
dash garlic powder

Directions:
Cook bacon according to package instructions. Once cool,chop into small pieces and set aside. In a small dish, combine all ingredients for dressing, adjusting pepper to taste. Mix well and set aside. In a blender or food processor, grind Fiber One to a breadcrumb-like consistency. Place half of the crumbs in a small dish, and reserve the other half for the next time. To the dish with the crumbs, add 2 tsp. Parm-style topping, the Italian seasoning, and 1/4 tsp. garlic powder. Mix well, making sure to break up any clumps of Parm. Pour crumb mixture onto a plate and set aside. Lay chicken breast flat between 2 pieces of plastic wrap, pound until evenly flat and about 1⁄2 inch thick. Place on a small plate. Pour egg substitute over chicken. Flip chicken and make sure both sides are evenly coated with egg substitute. Lay chicken breast in the plate of breadcrumbs and flip to coat the piece evenly. Bring a pan sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat. Cook chicken for 4-5 minutes per side, until cooked through. Let cool slightly, and then slice chicken into 1/2-inch-wide strips. In a large bowl, toss your greens and diced tomatoes. Top with feta, bacon pieces, chicken strips, and tomato wedges. Sprinkle with 1 tsp. Parm-style topping, serve with dressing
