Cool and Fresh: Greek Chicken Salad and Ingredients, Inc. T-Shirt Give-Away
August 01, 2010
We have been eating a lot of cold dishes lately since it is beyond hot here in Alabama. I love trying new versions of chicken salad, and this Greek Chicken Salad is so easy and so flavorful. I used rotisserie chicken to make this recipe even easier. Serve on lettuce leaves or in a pita for a really simple main-dish.
