MY FAVORITE CHICKEN SALAD
I'm a huge fan of chicken salad and have tried so many different variations over the years, but this one is by far my favorite. Simple, refreshing flavors and great texture make it wonderful on a sandwich or just served over a bed of lettuce!

JULIE'S FAVORITE CASHEW CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH
Yum!!! This makes one very, very tasty sandwich. It's my favorite sandwich, and was featured in a column about cooking for one in a New York newspaper a few years ago; being interviewed for the article was fun! :) Serve on various breads or over greens.

Whether I make enough for just the two of us or increase the amounts for a social occasion, I always get a request for this recipe. There's a nice mixture of flavors with the pickles and ripe olives, and a good crunch from the celery.

MY FAVORITE SAVORY CHICKEN SALAD
This is for people who cringe at the thought of fruit in their chicken salad! There are no raisins... no grapes... no pineapple bits... nothing sweet in this recipe!! I grew up on the salty flavors of the chicken salad from the New York Deli in Boulder, CO. It was delicious! They closed many years ago - and that drove me to make my own version. Here it is! Serve on a toasted bagel (my favorite) or stuff in a pita, or in a croissant - fancy! Always delicious!

Steps:
- Cut of your cooked chicken into small, bite size pieces (or you can shred your chicken). Mix all ingredients together in a medium bowl, combine well. That's it!
- TIPS:.
- Watch your mayonnaise as you go -- we like ours on the dry side -- if you love mayo - you can always add more -- but it's really hard to take out if you add too much. Be careful people! I recommend Hellmans Brand mayo -- good flavor.
- You could add some slivered almonds - if you like that kind of thing.
- Also - you can use any kind of cooked chicken: baked, boiled, sauteed, crock pot -- a roasted chicken from the grocery store! It all works and tastes great!
- Take a little nibble of your mixture and see how it tastes. Adjust seasonings to taste. My mom always said that if your recipe doesn't taste quite right -- add a little more salt. That was her secret -- and she was right!
- Slather your chicken salad on your favorite bread of choice and enjoy!
- Yum Yum!

FAVORITE CHICKEN SALAD
The original recipe for this Chicken Salad came from a dear friend of mine who used to run a catering business. Since this was one of her specialties, I have tweaked it a bit to be different from her original. Everyone loves this salad, and it can be a simple or as elegant as you choose to make it. I love it on croissants, but...

Steps:
- 1. Combine the chopped chicken breasts, celery, grapes, mandarin oranges and chopped nuts together in a bowl. Set aside.
- 2. In a small bowl combine mayo, salt and pepper to taste. Whisk together.
- 3. Add the mayo mixture to the chicken mixture and gently stir together to blend.
- 4. Serve as a sandwich filling (I love the delicacy of this recipe served on sliced croissants) or as a stand alone salad on a bed of lettuce. Sprinkle with extra chopped nuts to garnish.
- 5. VARIATION: I sometimes use fresh, sliced strawberries instead of the mandarin oranges. I have also used chopped apples. These combinations are really good as well.
MY FAVORITE CHICKEN SALAD
Miz Kathi's Chicken Salad Seasoning can be gotten at her restaurant at 101 N. Main Street, Wildwood, FL 34785. Her recipe calls for a full bag of the seasonings, but I found that to be too much seasoning for my taste. I scooped out 1/2 cup of the seasonings for a later use. Served with mini-croissants makes for a wonderful ladies luncheon!
