Curing The Craving...

I was craving a yummy, chicken salad sandwich today. Not just any chicken salad though, it had to have grapes in it. I found this delicious recipe on Kuki's Kookbook:

Amber's Grape Chicken Salad
  • 4 cups chopped grilled chicken
  • 2 cup red grapes, cut in half
  • 1 cup celery, diced
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup mayo
  • 1/2 cup green onions, chopped
  • 1/2 cup almonds (optional)
mix all ingredients together and then chill at least two hours before serving.

Tips:
It definitely satisfied my craving. Next time I'd cut back on the mayo, just a bit to much for my taste. I ended up using two cans of white meat chicken. I omitted the almonds; not because I don't like them, I simple didn't have them. I substituted dried cranberries instead. It was scrumptious. I'll definitely do half a cup of mayo next time & add the almonds (I'm sure they will give great texture). Enjoy!

PS. You don't have to necessarily let it chill for two hours. I served mine right away.
