Great Fruity Crunchy and Fresh! I used 2 cups of grilled chicken, 1 large apple, dark raisins, 1 celery stalk adding the rest of the ingredients and placed into a wrap. This can easily serve 10 makes a lot. especially if you serve it over a bed of greens. I kept the chicken and apple chunks close in size of the pineapple but would have been better if all three were cut down to 1/2 that size. I went for the tablespoon of curry love love the sweetness it brings to chicken salads.
