June's Take on Wendy's Apple Pecan Chicken Salad image

A friend introduced me to the Chicken Apple Pecan Salad served at Wendy's Restaurant Chain. I loved it and decided to try to duplicate it at home. This is what I came up with. I think its delicious and comes very close to the Wendy's version, but at a much lower price!
