This was easy to make and quite yummy. You feel full and satisfied afterwards. We grilled the chicken instead of putting it in the pan.

Had some friends drop in unexpectedly and since they stayed longer than expected and I felt the desire to feed them before they headed for home. I added chopped avocados and used Guacamole dressing since I had an envelope of Concord Foods Guacamole Mix on hand. They wanted the recipe and I told them they could find it on Recipes.com and substitue to their own liking.

So good it was addicting. I substituted Kraft Lime Vinaigrette and Gorgonzola cheese crumbles and left out the onion. I was full and satisfied after this salad.

This is one of my favorite salad recipes. It's tastes indulgent and is very filling. A great lunch option if you're "brown bagging" it.

This is a go-to light summer meal for my wife and me. We leave out the onion and use Ranch dressing instead. We also cook the chicken on the grill.

Quick, easy and good. I cooked the chicken on the grill, otherwise followed the recipe. Used Newman's Light Italian Dressing. My husband pronounced this a keeper.
