Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 ounces mixed salad greens (I like the butter lettuce mix or the romaine mix)
15 ounces mandarin oranges, well-drained
6 ounces of cooked and sliced chicken breasts
2 very thin slices red onions, cut in half and sliced into crescents
1/4 cup pecans, toasted
1/2 cup of bottled light Italian dressing or 1/2 cup balsamic vinaigrette dressing
2 ripe avocados, pitted, peeled and cut into chunks (I use Haas avocados, the dark-skinned avocados, but California avocados could also be used)

Steps:

  • In a large salad bowl, combine salad greens, mandarin oranges, chicken, onion and pecans.
  • In a small bowl, combine dressing and 1/2 cup avocado cubes. Mash and blend into dressing. Add remaining avocado cubes and dressing to salad. Toss and serve.
