CHICKEN FRUIT SALAD
INGREDIENTS:
4 grilled chicken breasts (season as you prefer), cooled and cut into cubes
1 lb. of mixed leafy greens such as Spring Mix or any lettuce type you prefer
1 cup each blackberries; raspberries; dried cranberries (unsweetened); and mango (cubed)
2 cup each mandarin (or tangerine) oranges (peeled and sectioned); cantaloupe (cubed); sliced strawberries; watermelon (cubed)
1 cup each cucumbers (chopped); radishes (diced); celery (sliced)

1 cup pecans, cashews, or almonds or a mix (optional)
Preparation Instructions:
1. In a large bowl, mix together all the fruits
and vegetables. Add the cubed chicken. You can either add it cold or warm, but it is more flavorful and juicy when added warm. Add the greens and gently turn to mix the ingredients.

and olive oil over the salad. Add salt and pepper to taste to the salad. Again, gently turn the salad to blend all ingredients. Garnish with nuts. Serve as is or with your favorite dressing.
