Fresh Fruit Chicken Salad
with Gorgonzola Cheese

I made this great recipe for a fruit salad
which is wonderfully refreshing and flavorful.
This is the best fruit salad I've ever had,
it's easy to prepare using pre-cooked chicken.
You can add fresh herbs like mint, I just didn't.

Ingredients:
4 cups baby spinach
4 cups mesclun lettuce
1 cup fresh pineapple, cubed
1 cup fresh white seedless grapes
1 cup fresh black seedless grapes
1 fresh peach, pitted and sliced
2 fresh plums, pitted and sliced
1 can manderine oranges, drained
1 can pears in light syrup, drained, syrup reserverd
1 fresh avacado, pitted, seeded and cubed
1/2 pint fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
2 cups cooked barbecued chicken, cubed
1/2 pint gorgonzola cheese, crumpled
Salt and black pepper to taste

Directions:
Place all ingredints in a large serving bowl.
Mix well and dress with reserved pear juice.
Arrange cooked chicken cubes on over top.
Cover with plastic wrap and let sit 30 minutes.
Uncover and sprinkle gorgonzola cheese on top.
