Faux Panera :)

I love Panera. Especially their Strawberry Walnut Poppy seed chicken salad... that is only offered as part of their summer menu... I love it so much that I'm scared the employees at "my" Panera are going to start calling me by name BEFORE I order.
However- I can't justify spending $8+ on a salad several days a week so I've resorted to once a week and have come pretty close to duplicating my own version at home.
My ingredients include:
Spinach
Romaine lettuce
Strawberries
Blueberries
Pecans
Pineapple
Mandarin Oranges
Raspberry Vinaigrette dressing
One boneless, skinless chicken breast

It does the trick and saves me some cash. This winter when I have no choice I will enjoy it more I suppose.
