Warm Honey Mustard Grilled Chicken and Spinach Salad with Fruit and Nuts

This is a healthy and delicious meal. Something about salty spinach with warm honey mustard chicken and nuts paired with the sweetness of strawberries and oranges makes me feel deliciously happy inside. Spinach cooks down a lot, so be sure to have plenty on hand!
