This is the best holiday salad I've ever had. I will definitely be making it again next year.

I'm not a huge fan of walnuts, so I used pecans instead. It was still delicious!

This salad is a great way to use up leftover turkey or chicken. It's also a great make-ahead salad, which is perfect for busy weeknights.
