Feeling a little hungry, and want a quick lunch? Try adding some leftover roast chicken. Feel free to save a little time by using pre-chopped broccoli. You may just need to chop it down into smaller pieces to make it work better as a salad. Another important tip is to make sure that you use fresh dill. Dried dill does not have the same flavor and the salad will not come out as intended.
