Steps for the salad

1. Make the Vegan Ranch Dressing ahead of time.

2. Cook your chicken: Flatten out with a meat tenderizer, and place in a skillet with the oil on medium heat. Cook 10-15 minutes, both sides, until the center is no longer pink. When cooled, chop into 1/4-1/2 inch pieces.

3. In a medium bowl, add celery, nuts, olives, pineapple, chicken, and the vegan ranch dressing. Mix together well.

4. Clean your lettuce and pat dry. Use 2 tablespoons of the chicken pineapple mixture per lettuce leaf. Garnish with an avocado or chopped onions. Enjoy!
