Need a quick fix for dinner!! Not into cooking lots tonight!! Try this Wendy’s Copycat Berry Almond Chicken Salad, it’s a wonderful salad with lots of great ingredients. Berries are of course still available but they are pricier so stretching them in a salad makes sense.
Here is my third salad I did doing Wendy’s Copycat salads. How I love a chicken/berry/nut salad.
All of my favorites mixed together with an unbelievable raspberry/acai fat-free dressing. You will love this salad for sure!! It is the perfect mix of sweet and savory. Enjoy!!
