This recipe is great for picnics and potluck luncheons. It's cool and light and great for a hot day's lunch on the patio. Serve on a crescent roll, with crackers or with your favorite bread. For a healthy appetizer, fill celery stalks with the salad and serve.
Ingredients:
2 -3 cans chunk chicken, drained
1 cup seedless grapes, halved
1/2 cup slivered almonds
1/2 cup diced celery
1 (11 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained
3/4 cup cucumber salad dressing
1/4 cup coconut (optional)
Directions:
1. Empty the cans of chicken into a large salad bowl, breaking up large chunks.
2. Add the grapes, nuts, celery, oranges, and coconut.
3. Add salad dressing and mix lightly.
4. Refrigerate 1 hour if possible to allow flavors to blend.
5. Be sure to refrigerate any leftovers promptly.
6. *I use whatever kind of nuts I happen to have on hand- pecans, walnuts, cashews.
7. All are good and bring their own unique flavor to the salad.
