Easy to make and tastes wonderful. You can use either turkey or chicken. You can serve it plain, on salad greens, or in a pita. Very versatile. If in season, try substituting black cherries for the grapes.

This salad is a great make-ahead lunch. I make a big batch on Sunday and then I have lunch all week.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I always have a few random veggies in my fridge, and this salad is a great way to use them up.

I added some grilled chicken to this salad and it was amazing! The chicken added a nice protein boost and made the salad even more satisfying.

This wild rice salad is a delightful blend of flavors and textures. The wild rice is nutty and chewy, while the vegetables are crisp and refreshing. The dressing is light and tangy, and it brings all the ingredients together perfectly.
