Salad for Dinner

I hope you had a lovely day!  I certainly did!  I'll tell you about it in a minute, but first I wanted to share the salad that we had tonight for dinner.

It was soooooooooo good.  Oh-my-goodness-good.

If you would like to make it, you will need:

1 bag of spinach leaves

2 grilled chicken breasts (hubby smoked ours)

1 container of crumbled Gorgonzola cheese

1 bottle of Kraft Creamy Poppyseed Dressing

1 bag of pine nuts

All you do is put the spinach leaves in a big bowl.  Sprinkle in as much cheese as you'd like and do the same with the pine nuts.  Drizzle the dressing all over the ingredients - again to taste - and then gently toss until the leaves, cheese, and nuts are all coated.  Slice up the chicken and add to the salad.

So easy, right?

Well today I went over to my friend, Yvonne's house, and took a few photos to share with you SOON.

We had so much fun - and she is excited to share her home with you.

I can't wait to do so!!!

xo,
Kim

I love that kind of salad. Craisins are a great addition! Makes it pretty too.

Hard to believe that at my age I've never used Gorgonzola. We use Parmigiano-Reggiano, sliced with a potato peeler on our salads, esp spinach or arugala.

Note to self: must try Gorgonzola :-)

This is a great post, Kim! Simple and easy. I am going to make that salad tomorrow. I have everything except the dressing. It sounds so good and healthy too.

Can't wait to see Yvonne's house. It looks like it will be a colorful as yours!!

I could eat a salad everyday, I love salads and the more stuff in them the better. Unfortunately my hubby does not share that love. He likes his meat and potatoes. Thanks for sharing, I may just try it.

Hello Kim,
The salad and the dressing both look delicious! Thank you for sharing the recipe. I needed a new salad dressing flavor to try. I do love pine nuts!

~Blessings, ~Melissa ;)

[Theresa-Garden Antqs Vintage]

Oh that sounds so good, does that recipe come in a Cholesterol free version? But then that would take away from the goodness of it, right. Hope you are having a good evening.

[Patty Boyd]

The salad looks yummy! I will certainly try it. I have never bought pine nuts. I see them used on Food Network -- guess I need to branch out a little. I can't wait to meet Yvonne and see her home.
Blessings,
Patty

I'm looking forward to seeing Yvonne's house -- I assume that's her front porch? I have the same rocker, painted red, on my front porch! But Yvonne's house paint and porch floor paint is in much better shape than ours.

Delicious salad recipe -- ummm... anything wth Gorgonzola, and you've got my vote.
