    Deliciousness overload.  That is what this salad is all about.  I looked in my fridge one day and decided to use a whole bunch of ingredients and make it into a salad. That's why I decided to call it the Loaded Chicken Salad.  I literally loaded it with leftover ingredients and it was fantastic!! I decided to use some baby spinach instead of lettuce because I felt like it would go better with the dressing.

    If you've read some of my previous blog posts, I mentioned that I was moving! I haven't even started to unpack as my house is a complete mess right now.  I just moved yesterday and there are boxes everywhere!! I feel a little overwhelmed at the moment and I think I'll be taking my time unpacking and arranging my furniture and what not. Last week, I went to my best friend's wedding and the day I came back, I received the keys to my new apartment. Luckily, I had a couple of recipes that I had already shot so I can upload a few here and that'll give me time to unpack my kitchen!

    I actually made this recipe a few months ago and it's just been sitting on my SD card for the past few months.  Last night, while I was browsing through my pictures, I remembered that I hadn't uploaded this recipe and completely forgotten about it! I remember when I first made this salad, I was really excited because it was a time when I had recently found some artichoke hearts.  I have never seen artichokes in Japan and so I usually do most of my shopping for special ingredients on iherb.com or Amazon. I found these marinated artichoke hearts and I like to use them in simple salads as they add lots of flavour and are so delicious!  I also love that they only use natural ingredients!

    • ¼ tsp black pepper

    Instructions
