This is a wonderful salad. I have a soup bowl which is perfect for serving. Instead of placing the strawberries in the salad, I pull off the stems from the spinach, put on the slivered almonds then ring the outside of the bowl with sliced berries. The dark green, bright red and cream colored nuts makes for a beautiful looking salad. I used it just as a salad with the chicken seperate. My friends that I had for dinner kept dipping the chicken in the dressing until it was gone. Thanks for a fun recipe.

This salad is really tasty even without the chicken, although the chicken does round it out. And it was quite easy to scale down to one serving. Love it!

The dressing is what makes this amazing with the strawberries. Make this, without the chicken it is fine, but trade the chicken for fresh grilled salmon and you have a new taste all together :)

I used left over chicken for this salad and it tasted delish. I didn't have almonds so I used walnuts! Also, thought I'd sweeten up the dressing a bit...added honey! YUM!!! I will make this again!

Refreshing...first few bites I didn't think it was anything spectacular, but I enjoyed it after that. Light and summery.

This was a wonderful summer salad. The first time we made it was exactly as recipe stated and was delicious. The next time we made it I used half the dressing and also pureed some strawberries in the processor and drizzled it over the salad this was a huge hit. Husband and kids recommend adding it to the weekly menu.

This is a first not giving 4 plus stars and this would be a 5 star recipe if not for the dressing. The salad by itself is 5 stars and delicious but the dressing was awful and we didn't even use it. I like ginger and lime but with the mayo and everything it was not good. I will make this salad again but never ever make the dressing. Maybe following some of the reviewers advise would make it better but I am not sure I would even try. Our raspberry vinaigrette dressing tastes fabulous with this.

As per other reviewers, added two truvia packets for some sweetness, poppy seeds, used yogurt instead of mayo, but did add one tbs. of mayo in addition because it didn't taste that great with just yogurt. Also made the candied pecans which went well w/ the salad. DH raved about it and didn't even complain that we were just having salad for dinner.
