    Winter Salad with Rotisserie Chicken Recipe on 5DollarDinners.com

    I love to make this salad for lunch…and we’ve had it for dinner too. My boys aren’t the biggest salad fans, but when I load it with their faves – chicken, apples, cranberries – they don’t seem to mind as much.

    I’ve got some pecans and dried cranberries leftover from the holiday baking that happened in my kitchen…so I imagine this salad will be making several appearances over the next couple weeks!

    Also, if you’d like to make a homemade vinaigrette dressing for this salad, I highly recommend this Balsamic Vinaigrette. It’s my go-to homemade dressing!
