Chicken and Fresh Fruit Salad

 Ok, just close the drapes, pretend there isn't any snow on the ground and the temperature outside isn't below freezing. Now let's step away from all of those Christmas Cookies and make this really easy and fabulous salad, then sit back to enjoy a taste of sunshine!

Ingredients:

Steamed, Diced Chicken

Spring Salad Mix & Baby Spinach Leaves

Mandarin Oranges

Sliced Strawberries

Green Grapes, Halved

Dried Cranberries

Glazed Pecans

Crumbled Blue Cheese (completely optional)

Rasberry Vinaigrette dressing

I make this quite often during the summer months for a quick light meal and usually serve it with fresh baked muffins....cranberry-orange muffins are wonderful with this! But last night I just figured we could use a momentary escape from all the snow we've been getting...as well as all the Christmas Cookies we've been eating. 

~Enjoy~
