I chose this recipe for 2 reasons: 1) I had all the ingredients in the house - all I had to do was remove the chicken breast fillets from the freezer and defrost, and 2) it required minimal cooking. I chose 1 each of apple and pear, deciding to live dangerously and really mix things up. Having said that, I was unable to taste the finished product - my family had this for their lunch. They LOVED this salad. So, this means I will have to make it again when I can eat it. Excellent recipe, sofie!
