CHICKEN SALAD WITH MANDARIN ORANGES AND PECANS

365 Ways to Cook Chicken. This is such an easy and adaptable recipe. Feel free to use canned chicken, arugula instead of the watercress. I added some leftover (plain) steamed green beans to the salad and that was good too. Grape tomatoes would be a nice adddition.
