Chicken Salad With Greens and Balsamic Dressing

"I had a chicken breast to use and came up with this to help clean out the fridge. This is a good-size lunch or dinner salad. Everything is to taste so feel free to make any adjustments/additions or subtractions you like. If you don't have Mrs. Dash or bacon salt, season the chicken with your favorite spices (those were just what I had and the combo was good!) I used recipe #223381 for the dressing but please use your favorite!"

  1. Nice salad on a warm summer day. I used 2 breasts, sliced them into strips, seasoned from there and then pan fried, for more of a flavour boost. I used the suggested dressing from the forward note, along with regular romaine and diced tomatoes. Made for Everyday Holiday Tag. :)

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I have a degree in archaeology from a small Ohio college and I work for the Ohio History Connection. My passions are art, music, books, food, history, and cats/animal welfare. I also love photography. I have a 1,000 (plus) piece collection of vintage flower pins from the 1960's, hence the username ha. I also have small collections of vintage butterfly pins, vintage tablecloths, and vintage glass Christmas ornaments. (Can you tell I love vintage?) I took a trip to the Netherlands in March 2006 and fell in love! I doubt it will happen but if I ever have the opportunity I would love to live there.
