    The cajun chicken salad is smoky and deep and paired with a yummy sour ranch dressing and avocados and griddled corn.

    I did use spinach in this salad, but you could always use romaine lettuce instead. There's one piece of cucumber in this salad picture that really bothers me. Can you guess which one?
