This salad is a great way to use up leftover chicken or tofu. I also like to add some crumbled feta cheese or goat cheese for a little extra flavor.

I'm not a big fan of poppy seed dressing, so I used a balsamic vinaigrette instead. The salad was still very good.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover fruit. I had some strawberries, blueberries, and grapes that were about to go bad, so I threw them all in this salad and it turned out great!

The salad was good, but the dressing was a bit too thick. I would recommend thinning it out with a little bit of water or milk.
