CHICKEN SALAD

A lot of people love chicken salad - here is the version I make the most often.

INGREDIENTS:
1 Rotiserrie Chicken (precooked)
1 C halved red globe grapes
1/2 C chopped pecans
1/4 to 1/2 C chopped celery
1/2 to 1 C mayonnaise
1/4 tsp celery salt

DIRECTIONS:
1. Remove all meat from the rotiserrie chicken, chopping into small pieces (some people prefer to shred their chicken, but I like big meaty pieces).
2. Place chopped chicken, halved grapes, pecans, celery, mayo and celery salt into a deep bowl and mix well, using as much of the mayonnaise as you prefer.
3. Spread on croissant, bread of your choice, crackers, or on lettuce leaves.

I have also used apples and cranberries in place of the grapes in this salad. To me, nothing beats the flavor of the chicken salad when it's made with a rotiserrie chicken!
