Healthy ranch chicken salad

Roasted chicken leftovers are always a good basis for a new salad experiment and I sometimes find it very interesting how a bunch of scraps and leftovers from yesterday’s dinner can make up such a good combination. So don’t throw away your roasted chicken leftovers, add them to a salad […]
