Summer Salad with Chicken, Asiago, Pears and Cashews
I think the name of this dish says it all. It is such a wonderful blend of flavors. It's also very light, yet filling. I love the use of the Asiago cheese in this. Compared to Parmesan cheese, Asiago is milder, less salty and softer. Great salad. Enjoy!
