Reviews
i didn’t use Feta cheese i used grated parm. i also added blueberries to it. i added pine nuts to my husbands, this is our go to salad this summer. awesome.
This was a delicious & healthy salad! I loved how simple it was but still satisfying. My husband was impressed by the meal but especially the dressing. Definitely make your dressing first so the flavors have a chance to meld together. There are 2 things I may add or change next time I make the salad. Firstly, add a bit more chicken. Then either add candied pecans or swap the almonds out completely just because they’re not my favorite. Thanks for a yummy recipe!
