Reviews from our home cooks
The salad was delicious, easy, and very well balanced. I loved it and so did my family.
Crisp, crunchy and delicious. Made for a great lunch & dinner on a hot day. Nice, light meal with good flavor.
This is my favorite salad so far! Once again this is supposed to be 2 servings but there wouldn't be enough to fill up 2 people!! I used half the turkey and ate most of all the salad but it was really really yummy!
Very filling and tasty salad! I'd rather have two packets of honey mustard dressing instead of having to dilute the one packet with olive oil.
Such a delicious and easy/quick lunch. My only gripe is I want more cucumbers and tomatoes personally and this needed a bright splash of lemon juice to freshen it up! Great easy meal though!
The panko added a delightful depth to this salad that made us extra tasty.
Very easy to assemble and fresh. I had enough turkey to have lunch sandwiches during the week.
Loved the simplicity of this one and was really delicious. Would order this one again.
It may be low in calories, but it was very high in Weight Watchers points. I altered it by making it omitting the panko, and using 1/4 turkey and my husband used the honey mustard dressing and added croutons and extra turkey to his, and I used Skinny Girl Raspberry Vinaigrette. Quit using all the high fat ingredients. (sour cream, cream cheese, full-fat dressings). There are alternatives.
Could be prepared well in advance, nice combination of ingredients, good hot-weather meal
