For the Honey Mustard
- ¾ cup honey
- ¼ cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon fresh parsley chopped

For the Salad
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 6-8 cups mixed green lettuce or lettuce of your choice

Combine ingredients for honey mustard in a medium bowl. Mix until combined, then transfer half of the mixture to another container.
Place the chicken in the bowl with the remaining honey mustard mixture. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to 12 hours.
Preheat a grill pan over medium high heat. Place chicken on grill pan, discarding remaining sauce, and cook 5-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
Slice chicken into pieces.
Divide lettuce, tomato, carrots, cabbage and cucumber between bowls. Top with chopped chicken, bacon and avocado. Drizzle remaining dressing on top.
Honey mustard dressing will keep for a week in the fridge if not used all at once.
