Sick and tired of the same old Ramen noodle chicken salad? This one is very different - it contains fruit and no cabbage. This does not keep long, so plan to eat this the same day. Adapted from Best of the Best from Colorado.

Ingredients

1 (3 ounce) package chicken-flavored ramen noodles (save the seasoning packet and the oil packet, if included)

1 -2 teaspoon sesame oil, if needed

1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice

1/4 cup canola oil

1 teaspoon brown sugar (brown sugar Splenda is fine)

1/2 cup seedless grapes, cut into halves (either red or green or mixture)

1/4 cup red apples or 1/4 cup green apple, unpeeled, diced

1/4 cup fresh pineapple, diced

1 1/2 tablespoons fresh chives, snipped or 1 1/2 tablespoons green onions, sliced

4 ounces boneless skinless chicken breasts, poached and diced

1/8 cup walnuts, chopped (or other nut of your choice)

Method

Cook noodles without adding the seasonings or oil that come with the package (reserve those), otherwise following the package directions.

Rinse cooked noodles with cold water until cold and drain well.

Add the oil from the noodle package (or drizzle with 1-2 tsp sesame oil if your doesn't come with oil).

Be careful- sometimes the oil that comes with the ramen is hot chili oil; if so use sesame oil instead.

Chill noodles while preparing the dressing.

Mix together lemon juice, canola oil, the dry seasoning packet from the Ramen soup, and the sugar.

Mix together the chilled noodles, fruit, chives, and chicken.

Add dressing and toss to coat.

Stir in nuts or just sprinkle over each serving.
