This salad is a great way to use up leftover chicken. It's also a good way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. I'll definitely be making this again.

I'm not a fan of dried cherries, so I used dried cranberries instead. The salad was still very good.

I was disappointed with this salad. The chicken was dry and the dressing was too sweet. I won't be making this again.

This salad was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper, and it was much better. I also think it would be good with some crumbled bacon or feta cheese.
