I made this wonderful salad today.  Really, really loved it.  Made the Moroccan version.

In the recipe it says to cut pumpkin to 1cm cubes but after the first lot of cooking time I found them to be very soft and the chicken cooked through.  I didn't need to add any additional time.  Next time I will cut the cubes a bit bigger to stop them over-cooking.  Certainly not a big issue but just something I've noted for myself.

It's the first time I've made the capsicum & sun dried tomato dip to use in it and that was scrumptious too!  I used toms that weren't soaked or marinated in oil or vinegar and I'd use the same ones again.

Will be experimenting the other versions of this salad very soon.  :)
