- Before serving, add 1 tbs of balsamic and if you are using an olive oil spray bottle. Spray 2-4 times, if you are not using a spray bottle, add 1 to 2 tsp.
- Add fully cooked boca chicken patty, lean protein, cheese, or shrimp ( if desired)
*Notes:
We use this olive oil spray bottle. The bottle dispenses 1/4 teaspoon of oil per trigger pull in a unique fan pattern that covers more cooking surface with less oil. Omit croutons if you are vegan or find one that does not contain milk. You can also make your own! We love using our kitchen aid food processor to do the vegetable chopping for us.
Tips/Tricks: Try dicing the vegetables at the beginning of the week, Having them in the fridge already ready to go makes dinner prep very simple! We love chopping our celery, carrots, peppers, and cucumbers on Sunday's so they are easily accessible. Say GOODBYE to those excuses. Order your chopper now!
