You MUST try this.

This might sound demanding...  it is.  You haven't lived until you have tried this salad.  All the credit goes to ourbestbites.com, but the recommendation comes straight from me. :)
Picture by me :)

Matt and I made this salad on Sunday and almost died while we ate it.  Don't worry, we survived and lived to tell the story.

Just a few notes:  It's not very hard to make.  Matt thought this salad sounded kind of weird and wondered if it would be good... he LOVED it.  We used our George Forman to grill the chicken.  Blackberries were on sale so we used those on the salad instead of blueberries.  We used strawberries in the dressing--it was so amazing, I don't think I would change it.  We used freshly grated Romano cheese because I tend to like that better than Parmesan.  We toasted the almonds on the stove with a little sugar--because everything is better with sugar.  We cut the spinach out of the recipe because it was expensive at the store.

Why are you still reading?  Go make this salad!

Pretty sure you would love the farmers' market here. I've eaten more produce in the last year than ever before. We'll definitely be giving this salad a try!
