If you love ordering fast food, and Chinese takeout in particular, you probably have a lot of packets of seasonings and sauces in your kitchen—the kind you usually use in excess and hate to throw away. You can use them to make a delicious dressing for a chicken salad that'll transform into a Chinese-inspired dish in just a few minutes. All you need is a cooked chicken breast (or leftover grilled chicken), raisins, and a green salad. Squeeze the sauces from the packets into the bottom of a plastic container, top with all the main ingredients, and shake well. It's a great salad option to take to work or on a picnic.

Remember those fast-food salads served in big glasses? You can make those too. Take an empty drink glass with a lid. Pour the dressing into the bottom (if you've done this before, you know you don't even need to mix it up; just squeeze everything out of the packets and spritz with lemon juice), then top with raisins, chicken, and lettuce. Close the glass, refrigerate it, and then shake it up for lunch!
