    8 cups torn spinach leaves
    2 cups cooked and cubed chicken
    1 cup seedless red grapes, halved
    1 cup sliced red bell peppers

    1/4 cup light mayonnaise
    1 red bell pepper, sliced

    Recipe



    Cook ramen noodles according to package directions, without adding the flavor packets. Drain noodles and cool. Cut noodles into large bite size pieces.

    2 In a large bowl combine the torn spinach leaves, cooked turkey or chicken, halved grapes, red pepper, cashews, Gorgonzola or blue cheese, and ramen noodles.

    3 In a small bowl mix flavor packets, garlic, and lemon juice and let stand at least 15 minutes. Add oil and mayonnaise and whisk until smooth.

    4 Pour dressing over salad and toss until thoroughly mixed. Garnish with red pepper rings and small grape clusters, if desired. Serve.
