Roasted Chicken and Cannellini Bean Salad image

This is a wonderfully refreshing and flavorful salad. Add some crusty bread, or fresh pita and this makes a great light meal. I adapted this from a Cooking Light recipe. The flavors are even better after the salad has sat in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight. If you decide to make this ahead of time, do not add the fresh mint and basil until just before serving.

I'm not a huge fan of chicken salad, but this recipe was surprisingly good! The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the cannellini beans added a nice touch of texture and flavor. The dressing was also very light and refreshing.

I found this recipe to be a bit too time-consuming. The chicken took a long time to roast, and then I had to wait for it to cool before I could assemble the salad.

This salad was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning, or maybe a different type of dressing.
