·      Salt and Pepper to your taste

·      Add a small amount mustard for a bit of tang

Add:

o   I use almond slices if it is for a salad.  I put one scoop of chicken salad on a bed of romaine lettuce and baby spinach and tomato topped with sliced almonds.

 

Spring is here so it time to try something light.  This is a good lunch or light dinner.  Enjoy!!!!
