with adobo honey vinaigrette

Active: 20 Total: 20

Chopped rotisserie chicken makes an easy salad filling, and if you're doing the vegetarian version, extra beans and tomatoes give this a southwest feel. Dressed in our adobo honey vinaigrette, any salad filling is going to be jazzed up with so much flavor. You'll definitely want to put this vinaigrette on everything, but remember to save some for tomorrow night's dinner!
