Elegant Chicken Salad-Good Enough for Company
Works Great for Turkey Too!
Leftover Turkey from Thanksgiving Idea!
I know there are hundreds of Chicken Salad recipes and many of them are scrumptious. In fact, I love Chicken Salad no matter how you make it.
But this one is a little different and is elegant enough to serve as a gourmet luncheon meal. I have made it many times for family lunch or when friends stopped by and it always gets rave reviews.
This is another of my Quick Gourmet series of recipes...for people who are busy but still want really nice meals with a minimum of fuss. You can even buy the exotic ingredients on the web, and the rest of the ingredients are probably in your cupboard already.
Plus you can make it ahead and just pull out the plates when it's time to eat. Perfect for the day after Thanksgiving or Christmas when you are too tired to make another hot meal!
Add Iced Tea, Dessert, and you're done! Enjoy!
