I serve this entree salad in hollowed-out pineapple halves as a pretty company dish. Tender chicken tossed with fruit, nuts and veggies is delicious with a mild curry dressing.-Ryma Shohami, Montreal, QC

This salad is so versatile. You can add or remove ingredients to suit your taste. For example, I like to add a bit of shredded cheese or crumbled bacon.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover chicken. It's also a great option for meal prep, as it holds up well in the refrigerator for several days.

I'm not a big fan of pineapple, but I really enjoyed this salad. The sweetness of the pineapple was balanced out perfectly by the savory chicken and tangy dressing.
