I'm feeling very proud of myself...I finally made awesome chix salad! I've struggled with this for years and had made it a mission! I've searched high and low for a good, basic recipe, which I could not seem to find. There are thousands of recipes out there, but I don't want the apples, Asian version, etc. Here it is:
Chicken Salad
2 c. cooked, diced chicken breasts (about 2 lg.)
1/3 c. onion, chopped
1/2 c. celery, chopped
1/2 c. mayo, or more for the desired consistency (lite works just fine!)
salt and pepper, to taste
lil' dash of Dijon mustard (very little, like 1/4 t.)
Mix and chill for a few hours to blend flavors.
****On my quest for a great recipe, I read somewhere that if you chop the chicken, it's even better. The last time I made this I did and it was super! I just used my mini-chopper. (I have the $4 electric version which I normally just use for crumbs...it worked fine!)

For complete perfection of this recipe just dice up a couple of apple quarters--this way the fam will get their fruit requirments--bet kurt would absolutely LOVE it done this way!!!!
maybe Christmas dinner? or a night when he has to take the leftovers to work?
(FYI: my MIL made chix salad with apples in it once and Kurt FLIPPED out...he still talks about it...5 years later!)
