    I make this with a rotisserie chicken from my local grocery store, couldn't find the pesto one so I used the greek one, I use kalmata olive instead of the can black olives and it gives it a great added flavor!!! My picky 7 year old son LOVES it!!!!

    I couldn't find the pesto basil one either but they had a limited edition Greek one that is delicious! I will definitely make this one again. It's exactly the kind of dish I need for when I take my lunch to work.

    This is a great salad. My grocer doesn't carry that style Suddenly Salad so I just used a pesto basil sauce and some noodles I had in the cupboard. I will definitely make this salad again!
