Strawberries and sliced avocados might seem like unusual toppings for chicken salad, but paired with a poppy seed dressing, they create a delicious dish that is loaded with flavor. Slivered toasted almonds and crisp red onions add a crunch to each bite.

- 1 1/2 pounds chopped cooked chicken (about 3 1/2 cups)

- 1 avocado, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted
- 1 (10-ounce) package mixed salad greens
- Garnishes: avocado slices, whole strawberries
Preparation
- Whisk together dressing and mayonnaise in a large bowl; cover and chill 30 minutes.
- Add chopped chicken and next 5 ingredients to dressing mixture, gently tossing to coat.
