  1. The best dressing is 1 part good real mayo and 1 part Marzetti Slaw Dressing mixed together. You’re welcome:)

  2. Gotta have celery, diced pickles, finely diced onion. Then whatever else you want. Grapes, dried cranberries, raisins, nuts, diced hard cooked eggs, all good additions if you like. 😍

  3. Holy crap! You just solved a HUUUUUGE problem for me. I've been on a hunt trying to find SOMETHING for either a snack or a final dish that's not heavy for a long time. I never thought of this. Thank you so much….gonna thaw out the chicken boobs right now

  4. Hello thank you for your super delicious yummy Recipe and thank you for your beautiful video enjoy 🟠🟣🟣🩷🛑❣️🛑❣️🛑🟣🟠💓💓💕💜🔵💜💗🟪🟩🩶🟧♥️🩵🩵🔴❤️❤️💟💟💟❤️❤️🟡🟡🟡

  5. i like to shred iceberg lettuce and put the chicken salad on top of the lettuce. add some chopped tomatoes….don’t forget saltines on the side 🌸

  6. Being a good southern girl, I recognized Duke's mayonnaise. Yep, a good mayonnaise makes a good chicken salad. 😊

  7. If you have nut allergies, substitute halved grapes for the almonds. If you don’t have lemon juice, stir in Balsamic Vinegar to replace the lemon juice.

  8. Been looking at your library of videos and don't see a lot of Asian recipes. Could you make a simple stir fry and fried rice recipes that doesn't use a lot of sauces that I would not normally keep in my kitchen (example fish sauce, when would I use fish sauce in normal day to day cooking). I have standard white bread seasonings at my house, to most Asian seasoning I have is Lite Soy Sauce. Help please.

  9. Great recipe, one of my favorites is to add ranch dressing instead of mayo, not a huge fan of mayo, also do it like a Arby’s and use grapes and pecans!! Yum

  10. I love simple and easy. The only thing I changed was I changed it to walnuts instead of almonds, and Dukes mayonnaise is a must. And don't forget a little onion.

  11. Ingredients
    ½ cup blanched slivered almonds
    ½ cup mayonnaise
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
    2 cups chopped, cooked chicken meat
    1 stalk celery, chopped
    Gather all ingredients.
    Place almonds in a frying pan. Toast over medium-high heat, shaking frequently. Watch carefully, as they burn easily.
    Mix together mayonnaise, lemon juice, and pepper in a medium bowl.
    Toss with chicken, toasted almonds, and celery.

  12. Almonds in chicken salad is huge NO !! Probably puts raisins in cookies, walnuts in brownies & pineapple on pizza… gross !!!

  13. I agree that keeping chicken salad basic, is really the way to go. You can always add other flavors to the sandwich, wrap, salad, crackers, if you want something additional. This basic version is delicious and there are no weird surprises. It will definitely appeal to more people with less ingredients.

  14. Just bought chicken salad at heb and it cost more the $10.00 for a small tub. No more I'm making this kind . Simple classic love it.
