Tropical Chicken Salad (Diabetic Recipe)

Submitted by Srt

"Seasoned chicken, salad greens, mango, red bell pepper and raspberry vinaigrette make this an excellent choice no matter what your dietary needs. Steps 1, 2 and dicing of veggies can be done the day before and the salad assembled right before serving time. This makes a portable dish for parties!

I've made this one before and it is amazing. Even my hubby, who doesn't like salad, mangos, or spicy food loves it
