BBQ Ranch Chicken Salad

This has got to be one of my all-time favorite salad recipes.  In fact, I've decided "it's what's for dinner tonight."  I can get boneless, skinless chicken breasts at our local grocery store for $1.88 per pound--today only.  As soon as I post this, I am heading to the store.  Chicken cooked in BBQ suace is so good.  (Really like it on homemade pizza.)  The combination of the BBQ sauce and the ranch flavor is a perfect blend of sweet and savory.  And then top it off with feta cheese.  Love that stuff.  (Not quite as much as cream cheese, but it's in the running.)  Quick.  Easy.  Add some bread and a hot veggie and you' ve got dinner on the table.  Meet you in the meat department in a couple.  (Terry)
