"Fresh Chicken Salad Haiku: "So close to five stars! Just need to blend the dressing. Otherwise, superb!" I scaled this back to 1 serving for my lunch and used torn baby spinach and romaine. My only co..." See moremplaint w/ it was the instructions saying to drizzle the EVOO, balsamic vinegar and honey on before serving, b/c inevitably, my mouth ended up w/ a cloyingly-sweet honey bite, or a too-tart vinegar bite. This would be 5 stars, had I whisked the dressing together before adding it to the salad. But WOW! Such a simple mix of salad ingredients plus the pesto chicken - seriously tasty and something that I look forward to packing into my lunch for work."
