Great recipe! I substituted bottled Honey Mustard dressing since I was unable to find the mix, but it just made the recipe quicker and easier to make! The raspberries did not hold up well in mixing and serving the salad (tended to break apart and "disappear"), so next time I'll just use a few extra blueberries and strawberries. I used pre-packaged roasted chicken cuts, and so the recipe was speedy to prepare!

I really did like this recipe. I could not find the mix, so I used the bottled dressing. This was a good salad. I almost didn't want to bring it to the picnic I made it for because I had started eating it & didn't want to share it! I'm making it again next weekend for another function. I'm sure it will be a hit.
