Chicken Pineapple Cashew Salad (Betty Crocker)

I like collecting new salad recipes, especially for the summertime when I want something light and don't want to make my house even more hot by turning on the oven...this looked really yummy and the Italian Dressing mixed with the orange marmalade sounded really good. We also have lots of family bbqs and get togethers during the summer so I thought this would be easy to make and take.



4 cups baby spinach leaves
4 cups bite-size pieces romaine lettuce
1 cup fresh pineapple chunks
2 cups chopped deli rotisserie chicken breast (from 2- to 2 1/2-lb chicken)
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped (1 cup)
3 medium green onions, chopped (3 tablespoons)
1/3 cup Italian dressing
3 tablespoons orange marmalade
1/4 cup salted cashews

On large serving platter or in large bowl, toss spinach and romaine. Top with pineapple, chicken, bell pepper and onions.In small bowl, stir dressing and orange marmalade. Drizzle dressing over salad. Sprinkle with cashews.
