Chicken, Feta, Mandarin, Spinach Salad

     I'm generally not a fan of salads for dinner, but I thought I would give this a try. I was surprised to find that I was satisfied at the end of the meal. This salad is very flavorful and super easy to make. I also made a loaf of homemade whole wheat bread to go along with it.
