EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Use leftover cooked chicken, or purchase chopped cooked chicken from the freezer case in your supermarket.

For a flavor twist, skip the tomatoes and use mandarin orange segments or cut-up grapes instead.

This recipe was extremely easy to make and really tasty too. I didn''t have the tomatos or cucumbers on hand, so I substituted with some red onion and some extra cashews. I also added a tad bit more of the Ranch dressing to our liking as well. Muy bueno!
