SMOKED CHICKEN SALAD
With grilling and smoking season coming on, it's nice to have a deliciously different way to use some leftover smoked chicken. The great smoky flavor comes through the simple dressing, and the sweet taste of red grapes complements it nicely. Serve over lettuce for a stand alone salad, or use in a sandwich, if you prefer.
