Chicken Salad


Chicken salad is one of my favorite summer time foods.  I've tried many different chicken salad recipes over the years, but this is by far my favorite.  It's just the right combination of sweet, savory, and crunchy.  I'm so happy I am to have found a chicken salad recipe that meets my (admittedly high) expectations, I just had to share it with my blog readers!

INGREDIENTS

3 cups cooked chicken, chopped
1 green pepper, diced
2 medium sized celery stalks, chopped
4 green onions, diced
2/3 cup of dried cranberries
1 cup green grapes, quartered
4 Tbs light mayo
2 Tbs light sour cream
1 tsp poultry seasoning

DIRECTIONS

1.  Mix all ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.

2.  Cover and refrigerate for about an hour.

3.  Serve as desired!  I love putting it on a big bun and eating it as a sandwich, but you could also put it over some lettuce and eat it as a salad.
