Oh my goodness that looks amazing I love chicken salad and I’ve been thinking about making some so I’m going to try your recipe now thank you for sharing it with us .
Your food always looks delicious! The reason I subscribed to your channel is because you DO scrape all of your bowls clean. I find that so satisfying to see. I have always been frustrated at cooking shows that leave so much of the ingredients in the bowls. Yo are also a very tidy, organized cook which I appreciate.
Right?! Like when people prep their stations and have these bowls full of chopped onions and peppers, etc. It drives me bananas when they add those to the dish and you can still see so many stuck to the sides of the bowls!!!
I agree. When I finish scrapping my bowls I could almost put them back in the cabinet. I can't wait to try this chicken salad. I can almost taste it now.
I am so glad I found your channel. I made your chicken salad for dinner tonight and my family loved it! I never would have thought water chestnuts would work but they do and so so good! Thank you so much!! 💛
You are so welcome! We are very happy to have you with us at the table. Please let us know any other recipes that you try and enjoy. We appreciate the feedback!
I cannot wait to make your chicken salad sandwich recipe. It sounds wonderful. Do you remember Viva Italian dressing? They made the best Italian dressing and I guess there's not any more Viva. I guess they quit making it. Now we do have to use Kraft dressing
Thank you to the both of you. I enjoy the way you combine your love of friends, family, and tradition with your lovely recipes. We have family in Kentucky and it’s it’s one of our favorite places. The regional flavor of your channel gives it great appeal.
I love chicken salad! I’ve found it helpful to toast my pecans and sprinkle them on top of each serving so they don’t absorb liquid (leftovers). I like mine sweet too and add some honey to my Hellman’s mayo. Everyone can make this their own with ingredients they like. 😊 Yours looks delicious! I love how food brings sweet memories of our loved ones! ❤
We love that about food as well. Some of our greatest memories were made around the dining room table. Thank you very much for watching and for your feedback.
My Goodness, that Chicken Salad looks delicious!!!! I will be serving this for our weekend meal. Thank you for teaching me how to look like Tom in the kitchen!!
New viewer here. I have watched a couple videos so far. I like your presentation and ease of explanation of how you (Tom) make and serve your dishes/recipes, plus your neat and clean prep/cooking area. Melissa's video taping is spot-on including close-ups which we all like to see. Looking forward to more.
I mix Mayo, Miracle Whip, and sour cream in my chicken salad dressing. I make very small batches, so I use equal amounts of the three. My husband liked the taste of the three mixed. My husband's favorite salad dressing is Kraft's Zesty Italian!
I like to mix up my salad in a larger bowl. The larger the bowl, the better! It makes mixing the salad much easier and it goes a little faster and it seems like I'm always in a rush, which is not a good thing, but I'm working on it!
I will add this recipe to my collection of chicken salads. When a popular restaurant chain does nothing but 8-10 varieties of chicken salad, there is always a place for one more! TFS!
Thanks so much! We really appreciate your support and that you are really helping our channel to grow out. It’s been very exciting for us. Have a wonderful evening!
That chicken salad look WONDERFUL !! (and I knew you could get that big bite of sandwich in your mouth) LOL. Thank you so much for sharing.. God Bless you both..
Why do i have a feeling that you are going to be my new favorite to get recipes from. Thank you for the recipe. I always used grapes but you are right it does get watery the next day. So im steeling the dry cranberry idea from you and your mamaw.😊
Oh, my Dear Lord! I have been looking for this recipe for about 10 years!! I made it years ago and it was SO good but I lost the recipe! I'm so glad I found your videos!! 😊
Great idea to mix the Miracle Whip/Mayo half and half. I will probably grate the onion as I don't like biting even small chunks. Lookes delish and will be trying. Thanks
Absolutely beautiful. My family would everything you fix. I love to watch your channel early in the day,it gives me ideas for family dinners. Thank you Tom and Melissa.
That looks delicious! I love chicken & turkey salad. I would need a little salt though. Neither my son nor I am crazy about the turkey at Thanksgiving, we like just a little then mostly the side dishes. But back in the day I'd still get the biggest turkey I could find, 25 lbs if I could find one. It was cheap meat then. One year my son asked if we could turn the whole thing into turkey salad. I told him he'd have to be willing to eat most of it since I've never been able to freeze anything with mayo. He said he would. I had a 5 gallon ice cream bucket with the handle, & it completely filled that bucket. We both ate on it a few days, but true to his word, he ate the lions share of it.
It's one of my favorite meals. We had it again today for lunch, in fact. Pretty easy to put together and we always make enough for two to three meals. We enjoy leftovers. Thank you for joining our channel. We really appreciate it.
Yum, i could eat that for breakfast! I have never tried it with water chestnut or craisins. Thanks for the new recipe. I will definitely try it! ❤ God bless you and your family
Thank you so much Melissa , This chicken salad sandwich looks absolutely delightful. I can now see the difference in the hot chicken Salad and the cold salad sandwich. I will definitely be making mamaw's (Tom's) in the next couple of days. 😋 YUMMY Thanks for giving me this link... You are super sweet!!
The water chestnuts give it a really nice crunch. And the almonds would be fine instead of pecans if that's your preference. We are so happy to have you at our table.
Ty for chicken salad sounds delicious going to make this and love the cranberrys well you called them something else but can't spell it right lol love all your recipes and watching you explain so well bet you both were great teachers❤ GOD Bless
I’m going to try this, I always use the same ingredients you use with the exception of all white meat (I like it mixed for flavor) and I use apples instead of dried cranberries. Looks delish!
Melissa, you are a lucky woman to have a husband like Tom who enjoys cooking and preparing delicious food everyday! I am so envious! My husband of 54 yrs. is, and always has been, such a picky eater with a very limited palette! The only thing he would eat out of that mouth watering chicken salad is the chicken and mayo! SO boring! Anyway, I'm a recent subscriber who just came across your channel. I enjoy it very much and Tom is an excellent teacher! I'm Canadian, and I love seeing the southern spin on so many recipes. Thanks to you both for all your hard work. :) ~~M~~
Thank you so much for the nice comments. I agree that I'm really lucky to have Tom. But I do think we make a great team. We really appreciate that you have subscribed to our channel.
I just love you guys!! You make me want to come sit at your table. Thank you for all the delicious recipes! And you never skimp on an ingredient and that is another reason why I keep watching!!! Yummmmmm
you are the first video that I have seen that mixed miracle whip and mayo together. We have been doing that for ever when we make any salad that calls for mayo such as potato salad or tuna noodle salad. Great job
Hi Tom and Melissa, my name is Rose Lillquist I live in Albuquerque New Mexico and I stumbled across your videos and I just looked at your chicken salad recipe and boy does that look yummy I think I’m gonna try it I watch you guys just about every other day, but I know, and I I found your crunchy Salad and the Mexican chicken and oh my God I’m gonna make all of those cause they look so yummy
I am so impressed by your simple cooking that tastes like a $1,000,000 meal!! Thanks for sharing all of your delicious recipes with all of us. I enjoy watching your videos and wonder if you have considered writing a cook book? Thanks from Di in ND USA
Iam going to make this!!! It 15:50 looks delicuous!!! Serve with grapes, and you get the grapes, too.thank you tom, and melissa. You always push down on the criosant !!! Youdid perfect tom!!! 😂, ohio.
I am subscribed to several recipe channels. Sometimes I’ll watch recipe videos from other channels too. I’ve never seen anyone do a video recipe for chicken salad. It’s quite tasty
I love the way you use your grandmother's recipe, my boys have written down some of their grandmother's recipes. We live in very western ky. Home of the Murray State Racers!
I really like this channel as they use ingredients I use and love. In particular, I love Miracle Whip and dislike Real Mayo. The smell of Real Mayo turns me off. I once used Real Mayo as a hair conditioner as I had read that it was great for that. Having mayo on my head for an hour drove me crazy. I couldn't wait to get it off me as it smelled so bad. I didn't do that again. I love cut-up grapes in my chicken salad. I love the crunchiness of celery and know I'd like the water chestnuts. My husband, however, does not like water chestnuts and has them omitted when we order Chinese food. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
Okay - I really need to know! Did the Real Mayo (even though you didn't like the smell) do a good job of conditioning your hair? It's just great that I might come away with a beauty secret from this channel, too! Thank you so much for watching our channel. It's great having you at the table with us.
I made this the other day n my husband n I LOVED it!!!! It was delicious!!! I’m used to adding grapes but I didn’t miss them. God bless!!!! Thank u!!!!!🙏🏽💗🥰👏🏽🌷
Looks amazing and I make mine almost the same as your Memaw does I use apples and grapes and I too use a little more of both to make sure its all coated. I put his on a bed of lettuce and sometimes add boiled eggs in there too. He loves it. Thank You for Sharing your recipe its always fun to see how someone else does it.
I remember my grandma killing chickens to make chicken salad to take to a stanley party she would make a dishpan full for the party and no left overs! The good old days! God Bless !

You have a very speaking voice very distant and easy to follow when givinginstructions
@@fandhtwoohs8129❤
I agree with all of this ! ❤😊
I agree. When I finish scrapping my bowls I could almost put them back in the cabinet. I can't wait to try this chicken salad. I can almost taste it now.
Looks wonderful. Grandma recipes are always the best. Thank you for sharing.
You really can’t go wrong when you use a recipe that came from grandmas!
Did they have cranraisins when you where little? Could she have used raisins.🧐 I think I would of like either one. Thanks great recipe!❤
Thank you for being sweet, kind people and sharing family recipes. Nice and so refreshing to see in this crazy world we're living in!
I have saved many of your recipes. Thanks Melissa for putting the recipe with every post. Loved the chicken salad.
You’re very welcome. We are so grateful you are watching.

YUMMY
Thanks for giving me this link...
You are super sweet!!
I absolutely love the idea of water chestnut! I can't wait to try that! I use slivered almond instead of pecans.
The water chestnuts give it a really nice crunch. And the almonds would be fine instead of pecans if that's your preference. We are so happy to have you at our table.
I use Mayo and some sour cream mixed with a little Hidden Valley Ranch dry mix, just to taste. I usually use Craisins.
It really does look good I love making salad like this in the summer thanks
Thanks for watching. We really enjoyed our meal.
Ty for chicken salad sounds delicious going to make this and love the cranberrys well you called them something else but can't spell it right lol love all your recipes and watching you explain so well bet you both were great teachers❤ GOD Bless

My mouth started watering when you put the sa n dwich together. I'm going to have to make some chicken salad now.

Very good!
