Spring Greens & Roasted Chicken


This salad is delicious and super quick and easy if you're in a hurry to get dinner ready. It tastes as good as it looks!
1 2-1/4-pound purchased roasted chicken, chilled (Whole Foods-Madison has their roast chicken's on sale on Tuesdays)
5-ounces spring greens (about 8 cups) or a mixture of greens & lettuce
2 cups fresh sliced strawberries
2-3 ounces Gorgonzola or blue cheese, crumbled (1 cup)
1/2 cup roasted cashews
Balsamic Vinaigrette Dressing (I used Annie's)
If you have time you could cook one of Jen Ehr's wonderful chickens to use in the salad. In case you don't though, Whole Foods already roasted chicken is quite tasty. This is pretty much a local foods production especially if you used a chicken from one of the local farms. My greens and strawberries were both from my Jen Ehr CSA box and the cheese from the Madison Westside farmers' market.

A couple of good additions, if available, are a handful or two of fresh blueberries and 1/4 cup of thinly sliced red onion.
