Easy grilled chicken salad

Here is a great way of using up grilled chicken. You can make it in advance and take it with you to work. Just pack the dressing seperatly so that the greens won't willt.

2 chicken breasts, grilled and chopped in
1 package spring mix greens
1 large tomato, chopped

1 avocado, sliced
1 onion, sliced (preferably red)
1-2 handfuls herb croutons
1 handful Craisins

Dressing:
1/2 olive oil
1/2 vinegar - balsamic, rasbery or mango
 
Chop grilled chicken breast into bite sized pieces.
Divide the greens among 4 plates.  Arange the tomatoes, avocado, onion and chicken evenly on top of the greens.  Top with croutons and Craisins.  
Mix oil and vinegar together. Add salt and pepper. Drizzle over salad.

Tip: you can use cranberies or pomegranate seeds.
