This salad was a complete disaster! The flavors were all wrong and the texture was mushy. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I found this salad to be a bit bland. I think it needed more seasoning and some additional ingredients to give it more flavor.

This salad was easy to make and very tasty. I used a rotisserie chicken instead of turkey and it turned out great. I also added a bit of chopped red onion for some extra flavor.

I was skeptical about the fruit in this salad, but I was pleasantly surprised. The sweetness of the fruit really complemented the savory turkey. I also loved the addition of the nuts and celery. This salad is a great way to use up leftover turkey.
