Notes

  • Make layered salads in a large glass mixing bowl. That way you can see all the colorful layers before you divide up individual portions.
  • Assemble just before serving for best freshness and flavor.
  • To prep this ahead of time, chop all the vegetables and cook the chicken. Store separately in airtight containers in the fridge until ready to serve.
  • No time to cook your chicken? Grab a ready made rotisserie chicken from the grocery store!
