Chinese Chopped Chicken Salad

Here's an easy to prepare salad that is so good because of all the different greens. I use shredded cabbage, shredded romaine lettuce, baby spinach and arugula, plus a few other ingredients listed below. To give the salad a little more substance, I add some cold angle hair pasta and use one of my favorite salad dressings, Boathouse Miso Ginger.

Ingredients:
It's hard to measure shredded cabbage, lettuce and baby spinach, so I'm just going to describe how I portion out the salad for 2.

1 large handful shredded cabbage
1 large handful shredded romaine lettuce
1 large handful baby spinach
1 small handful arugula
1 poached chicken breast diced
1/2 shredded carrot
1 bunch green onions
1/2 bunch cilantro
2 tablespoons chopped walnuts

Preparation:
Combine the shredded cabbage, shredded romaine lettuce, baby spinach and arugula in a large salad bowl. Add the diced chicken breast, shredded, green onions, cilantro and chopped walnuts. Add 2 tablespoons dressing, half the amount we'll use in total, and toss well.

To serve, place a serving portion of the Chinese Chopped Chicken Salad on a plate or large bowl. Drizzle on a little more dressing and garnish with a few more diced green onions and chopped walnuts.
