Super easy, stinkin' delicious...

I am a chicken salad fanatic. I've recently slaughtered a bunch of chickens, and I just couldn't stand to make another batch of matzo ball soup with the leftover carcasses and meat, when I had the epiphany that I could nitpick the carcasses and make chicken salad!
I just boil the carcass for an hour or two, let it cool, then pick off all the goodies I missed when carving it up.
The best chicken salad, in my opinion:
-A pile of chicken meat bits
-A pile of finely diced apples
-A handful of chopped nuts (pecans or cashews are my favorites)
-Glob of mayo
-Pepper to taste

Mix it up, scarf it down!

I love sweet and savory foods. Sometimes I use grapes in chicken salad - with walnuts, mayo and a little dijon mustard.

Yum... It's great adding sliced celery to the above ingredients as well

Grapes are awesome too!
But I'm afraid of carbs right now, and grapes are so sugary...

sounds close to mine, i use chopped up dill pickles or pickle relish. Sometimes i'll add some very finely diced celery, but only if the hubby thinks i must...don't personally care for celery.

cranberries are awesome in this mix too!

My favorite chicken salad recipe includes grapes, pineapple, cashews, celery, onion, and is seasoned with cumin. Absolutely delicious! Everyone we feed it to calls it 'gourmet' or 'much better than plain'. LOL
