Prepared for My-3-Chefs 2008 The flavors in this salad are wonderful. I used fresh spinach for my greens. For my tastes the dressing was too oily. I prefer a more "fruity" lighter dressing. I will definately make this again but will cut the oil in half and increase the mashed strawberries. I cut the amount of almonds in half. 2 ounces just looked like too much. I'll be grilling extra chicken just for this salad. Thanks MsRobbyn for a delightful meal that I will enjoy more in the future.

I absolutely love to cook and try all sorts of new things. Most of my recipies are something I thought up and tried and they come out amazing! I've been told that the meals I make are as good as any fine restaurant. It's a huge compliment when everyone cleans their plates every time. I'm looking forward to charing recipes, getting ideas and making new friends
