During the holiday season, we’re busy, and many of us spend a lot of time in the kitchen cooking. For a fast and delightful meal, make a chicken salad with lots of flavor and the sweet tang of fruit-juice sweetened dried cranberries. I’m calling it Holiday Chicken Salad, but it is really a year-round favorite of mine. You may add or delete ingredients to meet your family’s need. If you have baked chicken left over, make a salad. It’s also a fast dinner fix with a store-rotisserie chicken as prep time is only 15 minutes. Chilling at least an hour helps flavor to mingle. It’s even better the second day.

Savory Sweet Arugula with Cranberries & Candied Pecans
Peppery arugula is the perfect vessel for this savory-sweet dish. My combination of arugula (with phytochemicals), dried cranberries (rich in antioxidants), dried nectarines ( with iron, potassium and antioxidants) and pecans (lowers bad cholesterol) is healthy and a wonderful treat for the senses in colors and taste.
