So many times I read other reviews for recipies on this site and they always tell you everything that they did different or tell you about the items that they changed. While those tips are usualy helpful I looked at this recipie and decided to make it as it is stated. Wow - I am glad that I stuck to the recipie.

When I submitted this recipe it was intended that the dressing be served on the side and put on the salad to one's liking. If the balsamic is too strong I have also served it with an olive oil vinaigrette or a raspberry vinaigrette.
This salad was very quick to put together and the tastes went together very nicely. My very healthy-eating sis was impressed and my meat-loving hubby put dibs on the leftovers!! Thanks!
Have you ever been craving something but you weren't sure what? This salad will probably satisfy it. It is sweet creamy and salty all at the same time. I couldn't find strawberries at the store (during strawberry season no less!) so I subbed blackberries. I also used a spring mix (it was on sale) for the lettuce and added some sunflower seeds for some crunch (personal preference not necessary). The chicken came out perfectly charred and juicy and complimented the other flavors of the salad well. What a lovely combination! Thanks Amy!
I have made this twice now-once without chicken as a side salad and once with chicken for dinner. It is great both ways and got rave reviews this is my favorite salad this summer!
Very nice combination of flavors. I followed the recipe exactly but next time I'll cut back on the vinaigrette. It was a bit much.
loved this...great summer dinner. only thing i changed was the dried cherries instead of cranberries no avacado & used raspberry vinagarette...family said they loved it thanks amy
This salad was amazing! My husband is not usually a fan of vinaigrette dressings but he even raved about this salad! We live in an area where fresh berries of all kinds are plentiful from spring to early fall so we will be making this a lot! Thanks so much for the idea! The flavors of all the ingredients combined perfectly!
AMAZING salad!! I didn't have italian dressing so I just grilled the chicken with garlic powder. I loved it and so did everyone else in our family... and they're "ranch dressing" people. Thanks so much!
I should have served the balsamic vinaigrette on the side it was to strong and over-took the flavor's of everything else.
