DELICIOUS CHICKEN SALAD
As the weather gets warmer and summer inches closer, I want to eat all the foods that make it feel like it’s already here. Chicken salad is a refreshing light summer meal. It also happens to be one of my most favorites. It’s such an easy dish to put together. It tastes a lot better the second day - so I like to prep this the night before, if possible. Let me know what you think when you try it.
INGREDIENTS:
2 1/2 cups diced cooked chicken
1 cup finely chopped celery
1 cup halved seedless grapes
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup diced apples
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup brown mustard
1 minced sweet onion
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
DIRECTIONS:
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients thoroughly.
Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to chill overnight.
Serve on bread or in a wrap. This recipe also goes well as a side dish served with crackers or pita chips.
*Feel free to add more seasonings or mayo to get the taste you prefer.
