About

Hot from the rotisserie and straight to your... salad bowl? Yes, the Rotisserie Salad takes the beloved juicy roast chicken and lets it mingle with crisp, tart apples and creamy, sharp cheddar for a combination that's perfect for a sophisticated dinner-in or a marvelous mixer! Pumpkin seeds bring a healthy crunch that would impress even croutons and everything is dressed in a tangy and sweet dressing that brings out the best of the savory flavors; it's the kind of flavor you'd imagine basting the chicken with as it rotates on the spit. Rotisserie Salad is so dynamic in taste and presentation it will leave other salads shaking in their boots!
