I love the flavor combination of this salad: Sweet berries, tart kiwi, and savory chicken. It’s very healthy too! There is only a very small amount of oil in the dressing, and it’s loaded with vitamins, fiber, and protein.

Do you like eating salads for dinner? I usually think I want something that will stick to my ribs more, but then when I’m eating a salad like this one, I love it. There is a great variety of flavors and textures, and I feel good about myself after dinner since it’s so good for me.

Use a juice you have on hand or that you will want to drink on its own since only a tablespoon is needed for this salad dressing. This recipe is written for a lightly dressed salad, so double the dressing portion if you prefer more.

    When do we add the yogurt/sour cream? Is it part of the dressing or is it a garnish on the salad. You did not indicate that in the recipe instructions. Sounds awesome!

      Oh sorry for the mistake. I changed the ingredients to just say mix all the dressing ingredients together, which is easier anyway! I hope you enjoy it!
