This makes a nice salad, however, the dressing is rather too strongly flavored for me. I was worried about it, so instead of mixing everything together, I prepared one serving with the dressing from the recipe. I like the vegetable mix and the chicken and noodles are fine. When I eat the rest of the salad, I will dilute the dressing with lime juice and maybe some vegetable oil. Of course, everyone is different, but I will use this recipe with a somewhat altered dressing in the future. Thank you for sharing this with us.
