With all this cold weather at the moment why not bring the sunshine to your kitchen, with this beautiful Smoked Chicken & Orange Salad.  I love salads and when hubby and I have both have had a busy day; or week in this case, it is nice and refreshing to be able to mix together a simple, easy and tasty salad together and enjoy for dinner.I would never even think to add orange to a salad, but my gosh, it was amazing, it complimented the dressing, along with the chicken, and the whole dish was a pleasure to eat.This is so easy, you have to give it a try.
