Chinese Chicken Salad | Mom's Test Kitchen

Welcome to November’s Secret Recipe Club Reveal! I am super excited for who I had this month! I was assigned the fabulous Julie & her wonderful blog – Confessions of a Cooking Diva! Julie is one of my favorite people. I’ve known her for awhile, not just through the SRC but through many other blogger things. If you’ve never checked out Confessions of a Cooking Diva, I seriously recommend carving out some time! Julie has an amazing selection of recipes!

When I found Julie’s Chinese Chicken Salad recipe, I knew I had found my SRC pick for this month. First, we love anything with Asian flavors. Second, thanks to the wonderful thing that is rotisserie chicken, there was no actual cooking involved. Third, I knew it would make enough that it would feed me for lunch pretty much my whole week at work. There was no downside to this recipe!

The only difference I made to my recipe from Julie’s original was I used broccoli slaw in the salad instead of just shredded cabbage. I’m a big fan of broccoli slaw so I’ll take any excuse to use it in a recipe. Julie served hers in slider buns – I ate mine wrapped up in a tortillas simply because I already had some here at the house 🙂

    Yum! This salad looks amazing! It’s good to know that I’m not the only one who judges recipes by how many leftovers they make. 🙂
