The crunch from the cashews and the burst of juice from the raspberries make this a special chicken salad. The orange flavor mixed in with the tang of the yogurt is just so special in this salad. I love to eat it as is on a bed of lettuce but it also makes a great sandwich. It’s light and a much healthier version of the mayo heavy salads I’ve had in the past.
