I love the combination of flavors in this salad. The chicken is savory, the grapes are sweet, and the pecans add a nice crunch.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of honey in the dressing.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my salad turned out dry and bland. I think I might have used too much couscous.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I also like to add a bit of chopped celery and red onion for extra crunch.
