Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup pecan halves

  • 1/2 broiled (or grilled) chicken breast, sliced in a few thin strips then cut into bite size for a small mouth pieces)

  • 6 red or purple seedless grapes, halved

  • 10 blueberries

  • 1/4 cup olive oil mayonnaise(or just the kind you want to use)

Directions

  1. Mix all ingredients except the spinach and the Romaine lettuce together in a chilled bowl. On a couple of plates, divide up the spinach and Romaine lettuce between them arranged attractively, and then divide the mixture in the bowl in two and place on top of the lettuce/spinach. Serve with one Rye Wasa Cracker each.

This sounds just wonderful. I especially like using the spinach and Romaine Lettuce. This recipe also gives us enough of this to eat per serving that we can use it as a meal.
