     Delicious... Next time I might marinate the chicken in some Lime and Pepper to give it a little extra. The dressing was AMAZING! Even my boyfriend liked it and he's a creamy ranch kinda guy :) - 7/19/12

     I doubled the vinaigrette recipe, it was a side salad for us so no chicken. A good kid friendly salad, yummy. - 6/17/12

     I will use chicken thighs instead of breasts to me the thighs taste better and are a little juicier. - 6/16/12

     I am going grocery shopping and all the ingredients I need happen to be on sale this week so I think I will make this for myself. Too much sugar for hubby but he won't be here so it's perfect for me and if my son won't try it when he gets home from work, he can use the chicken breast on a reg salad - 1/25/12
