This was pretty good. It is a nice change from the typical chicken salad. I really liked all of the vegetables that were in it. I did have to season it up quite a bit as it seemed like it was lacking something. The addition of some garlic powder, a lot more cumin, some sugar and some southwest seasoning really kicked up the flavor. Thank you for sharing this recipe.
