Really brilliant. This salad is easy to make and delicious. I used a boneless turkey breast. I roasted it in my oven. I just could not wait till Thanksgiving leftovers to make this recipe. The dressing is fantastic. I dressed up the salad by using the bagged fancy lettuce. Great summertime salad as well. I think chicken would work just as easily.
