I'm not sure I would make this salad again. It was just okay.

This salad was a bit too bland for my taste. I would recommend adding some more herbs or spices to the dressing.

I found that the chicken was a bit dry. I would recommend using a more moist cooking method, like poaching or grilling.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the dressing.

I'm not usually a fan of chicken salad, but this recipe changed my mind. The smoked chicken added a delicious flavor and the cranberries and walnuts gave it a nice crunch.

This salad was a hit at my last potluck! Everyone loved the combination of smoked chicken, cranberries, and walnuts. I will definitely be making it again.
