Just the ticket for this hot and humid day! DH and I love chicken salad, citrus and avocado so we really enjoyed this salad which brought these flavors together so nicely! The cinnamon accent is lovely, although I reduced the amount slightly and we liked it that way. Prepping the salad a day in advance made assembling the salad today a real breeze! Made for 5 a Day in photos forum. Thanks Tinkerbell!

A great recipe for using cooked chicken which, now that I'm making breezermom's Basic Chicken Stock regularly, I'll be making often. Fabulous blend of flavours. Very much a citrus lover's and avocado lover's recipe; and a recipe that went a long way towards alleviating my anxiety - I have zero tolerance of anything remotely hot and spicy! - around Mexican dishes. Made and thoroughly enjoyed for ZWT 5. Thank you for sharing this super recipe, **Tinkerbell**! SO easy to make and SO delicious!
