This salad is a great way to use up leftover chicken or tofu. It's also really versatile - you can add or remove ingredients to suit your taste.

I'm not usually a fan of noodle salads, but this one is amazing! The dressing is light and flavorful and the citrus really brightens it up.

Not a fan of this one. The flavors were just okay and the dressing was a bit too oily.

So easy and refreshing! I used a mix of oranges, grapefruits, and lemons for the citrus and it was delicious.
