• 3 chill.
• 4 note: i have also made this salad using diced pepperoni (about 1/2 cup) in place of the chicken.
• 5 if you use the full 2 cups of chicken it is a great main dish salad, or if you prefer you can omit meat altogether and have it as a side salad.
• 6 if your store carries two sizes of the bottled dressing, use the bigger size.
• 7 i don't have any on hand at the moment to check the ounces.
• 8 sometimes i also add diced green pepper.
