Who doesn’t love chicken salad? It’s perfect for lunch, brunch, breakfast, snacking…It’s the perfect presentation, whether in a sweet little finger sandwich at a fancy tea party, or with crackers on your back porch! There are a million different ways to make this chicken concoction – but in my humble opinion…this is the BEST EVER! It’s just the right combination of savory and sweet, with just the right amount of crunch!
Now – before you get to the ingredients – I know this is a controversial topic for many, but here goes…I use Miracle Whip in this recipe. Before any Mayo purists send me hate mail… I LOVE Mayo! I just feel like Miracle Whip adds a little more zip and flavor here, but If that’s not your thing, it’s 100% ok! Mayo will work just as well! âşď¸
