Yum! I used a shredded deli chicken, a red Delicious apple, and glazed pecans for this great salad. Light and refreshing. Thanks Annacia for sharing. Made for ZWT 8 - Great Britain. -
I used leftover chicken so this was a breeze to assemble for a quick lunch. I love good bleu cheeses so the stilton was a hit here. I used pecans, a gala apple, and fat free vinaigrette. Yum! Thank you for sharing the recipe! -
Awesome salad! We had this for a perfect light dinner on a hot day. So flavourful! I made it with stilton for DH and used a similar blue sheep's cheese for myself. Good keeper for the next summer ;-) Thanks for sharing!<br/>Made for ZWT 8 / Great Britain for the Lively Lemon Lovelies
