Variations
Smoked chicken breast is excellent but expensive so substitute freshly grilled chicken breast if desired. Prosciutto ham may be substituted for lean ham but remove rim of fat.
Substitute according to what is available eg. fish instead of chicken, or banana, capsicum, pineapple, artichokes or whatever appears to be a pleasing combination.
