      Try homemade honey mustard dressing. I still use some Duke's (the only mayo in my book), maybe 2 parts honey mustard and 1 part mayo. Really good option to traditional. Don't forget the iced tea. 🙂

    I love chicken salad.
    Haven't tried it with almonds,but I've put dried cranberries in it.
    I've also put it on toasted bread with a bunch of cheese sprinkled on top and then under the broiler for a few minutes.
    Hope you're having a great Saturday

    I add pecans, green onions and water chestnuts to my chicken salad because I can't stand celery.
    But have been known to add grapes too.
    If you place leftover chicken in some chicken broth it won't dry out and turn brown or get tough.
    The most popular ways to serve chicken salad is on top of or wrapped in lettuce, on bread, in pita pockets, in tomatoes and phyllo cups.
    Had to do chicken salad for a bridal tea and wanted to make it look really good, so placed spinach leaves on the plate and placed the carved, hollowed and filled tomatoes in the center to make them look like a rose.
    It was a big hit and looked rather elegant on that fancy eating table.
    After that, got requests to do it again and again, and with different colors of tomatoes to match bridal themes or other parties.
    Got a request for appetizer chicken salad in cherry tomatoes and the client was bummed that they couldn't have the bigger "rose" tomatoes, but I said don't fret, and stabbed little holes in the lower sides of the cherry tomatoes and poked in the smallest spinach leaves I could find.
    It worked and made a rather elegant display too.

    Chicken salad is a favorite in this house. My family likes it with Vidalia onion, celery, sweet pickle relish, spicy mustard, and Hellmans mayo (with salt and pepper of course) on Texas Toast. A piece of iceberg lettuce on that bread and the bread sliced up with a smear of Hellmans. I make these sandwiches when we go off somewhere and need to picnic or ... just because 😊

      Dukes was originally made by Sauer's of Richmond, VA, but it has been bought out. It's what we grew up on in Central VA. Salad dressings (e.g., Miracle Whip) are too sweet for chicken salad, but even my grandmother's homemade mayo (which was to live for) had a pinch of sugar in it.

    I’m so glad you don’t put onions in this! I do not like raw onions and so many chefs ruin dishes with them! I can’t wait to try this!!

    I stopped using ketchup with brown sugar on top ,trying to cut extra sugar. So now I save some of the plain tomato sauce and add brown sugar to it. I baby steps add i honestly can't tell the difference.
