Our current church time slot is from 2-5 pm.  And the church is 20+ minutes away, so by the time we get home we are hungry and ready to eat.  This was a quick and easy meal since I bought the rotisserie chicken already made from Costco.  The salad has a great, summery flavor.  Enjoy!
Ingredients:
  • 2.5 Tbs balsamic vinegar
  • 1.5 Tbs extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1.5 tsp onion powder
  • 2.5 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 2.5 tsp maple syrup
  • 3/4 tsp Dijon mustard
  • ¼ tsp kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 cups shredded skinless, boneless rotisserie chicken breast
  • 2 cups sliced peaches
  • ¼ cup chopped walnuts, toasted
  • ½ cup vertically sliced red onion
  • ¼ cup chopped pecans
  • 1 (5oz) package gourmet salad greens
  • 2 Tbs crumbled goat cheese
Directions:
  • Combine first 8 ingredients; stir with a whisk.
  • Combine chicken and remaining ingredients except cheese in a large bowl.  Add vinegar mixture; toss gently.  Sprinkle with cheese.
