White Bean and Roasted Chicken Salad

SYNERGY: Pair 2 sources of zinc for maximum zinc absorption. Zinc helps to control your appetite, so you're less likely to overeat. Try this combination of chicken with white beans.
SWAP: Make your own dressing using olive oil and fresh ingredients instead of buying a bottled dressing with added sugar and preservatives.
SECRET SOURCE: Cannellini beans are an excellent source of iron–more than spinach and some red meats. They also are richer in protein than many other plant foods and have as much fiber as oats.
