I love getting as many meals as I can out of a Rotisserie Chicken.  As part of my most recent meal planning adventures I have been buying 1-2 Rotisserie Chicken's a month.  To see all the fun stuff I have been doing go HERE.  

This Salad is a different and fun meal to throw in the mix.  We all love it!  I will always be grateful for the day when I found this recipe on Pinterest.  Her picture turned out way better than mine, so until I get a better one I am using it.  HERE is the link to the original post.
