Although I do have cans of chicken meat on hand, I also have shredded chicken breast in the freezer, so used that in this quickly made salad! Really loved the inclusion of the dried cranberries, & I toasted the pecans before including them! Also decided to use yogurt this time around & that's definitely a great choice! Thanks for sharing a wonderful recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in the current Pick A Chef]
