Super Easy Chinese Chicken Salad! This recipe came from my Grandma Louise. It’s such an easy and quick recipe to whip up for dinner or for lunch. I just love to make this when it’s nice outside. It’s perfect and light for warmer days :-) I’ll also pack up the ingredients separate for Mr. Jones to take to work…. that way it stays nice and crisp.
