3 cups chopped lettuce (iceburg or romaine)
4 oz cooked chicken cubed (if you don't have cooked chicken use a 5 oz can of chicken drained)
1 1/2 Tbsp craisins
1/2 c canned mandarin oranges drained

Layer in a bowl the lettuce then chicken next oranges then cranberries. Pour Creamy rasberry dressing over top.

Creamy Raspberry Dressing
1/2 c plain yogurt
1/4 c fat free milk
1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 Tbsp raspberry jam or preserves ( this works well with blackberry too)
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1 tsp poppy seeds (optional)

In a small bowl wish all together. Pour over salad.

If you want to use the dressing for any salad or as a veggie dip it is 10 calories per Tbsp.

I don't do WW so you will have to figure out the points if you are.
Sorry.................. I didn't realize I forgot to type cup for the yogurt and milk, so it is 1/2 c plain yogurt and 1/4 c fat free milk. And the jam is 1 1/2 Tbsp. I was in such a hurry to eat I messed up but it is corrected now.
