Chicken Salad
Who doesn’t like good chicken salad? With the weather finally getting nice enough to enjoy a weekend lunch on the deck you really don’t want to spend all your time making the perfect lunch. You also don’t want to feed your family that store-bought chicken salad that is more salad then good chicken.
You can make this from scratch or use a rotisserie chicken you picked up from the deli. I typically use leftover chicken from the night before. Either way you will enjoy the ease of preparation and the great tasting lunch for your family.
