CHICKEN APPLE CRANBERRY SALAD

None of the men in our family (including The Darling) ever cared much for any salad except the tossed greens always served with steak, but I truthfully believe that Southern ladies could eat a salad for lunch everyday of their lives. Why precious, we love serving salad with hot rolls, a relish tray with homemade pickles and iced tea! 

CHICKEN APPLE CRANBERRY SALAD

2 cups romaine lettuce, torn

2 cups mixed greens

2 cups cooked chicken

1/4 cup roasted pecans

1/4 cup dried cranberries

1/8 cup crumbled blue cheese

1/2 chopped green apple

1/2 chopped gala apple

The Dressing

2 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons pomegranate juice

2 tablespoons white wine vinegar

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1/4 cup olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

 For the dressing mix all the ingredients together in a jar and shake well, set aside. 
Take a large serving and lay out the romaine, then top with mixed greens.

Next, place the cooked chicken on top followed by the pecans, cranberries, green and gala apple and then the blue cheese. Drizzle with about 1/4 to 1/3 of the dressing. Refrigerate remaining dressing.
