Tropical Chicken Salad with Mango Avocado Salsa
Another chicken salad … sigh. Let’s face it, just like great shoes, you can’t have too many great chicken salad recipes. And try using the salsa on seafood, or grilled steak or chicken. It’s a great little weapon to have in your recipe arsenal.
I love to make a salad that is a complete meal, and this is such a thing. I have many many of those types of salads on here. Have a look around. Add some to your menus! Come back again for another one. Join me on the IC for even more!
