This was such a great salad! I really enjoyed the dressing. This did take a while longer than 15 minutes, if you don't have already cooked chicken and already fried wontons, but it is still a quick dinner to put together. Thank you for posting, we will make this again and again. :)

DBF took two bites and exclaimed "You have got to make this again! This is awesome!" I really liked it because it was easy to make and the dressing wasn't too overpowering. I did halve the dressing recipe in order to cut a few calories, but it was really tasty, so I may make an entire bottle next time just to have around. I also baked the wontons, and didn't use a full package, to cut out a little more fat. This will definitely go into the salad rotation. Thanks homegirl!

Out of this world! The flavors blend together beautifully. I have even made a bottle of just the sauce that I will use for marinating and as a sauce for other recipes as well. Thanks for sharing this with the community Homegirl.
