Instructions

Spray a skillet with cooking spray, and heat over medium-high heat. Sprinkle both sides of chicken breasts with seasoned salt, and cook in hot skillet until heated through (12-15 minutes). Allow to cool slightly, then dice into bite-sized pieces.
Meanwhile, add all dressing ingredients to a container with a tight fitting lid. Shake it very, very well, stirring once to evenly distribute the honey. Set aside.
In a large salad bowl, add salad greens, gouda, grapes, apple, and chicken. Pour prepared dressing over the salad, and toss to coat. Dinner is served!

Notes

I think alfalfa sprouts would be a great addition to this salad. They were not available at my grocery store, but I will try to add them next time!
