Helen Corbitt's Chicken Salad with Fruit
2 1/2 cups diced cold chicken (not canned!!) 1 cup chopped celery 1 cup sliced grapes (red are my favorite)* 1 cup sliced toasted almonds (not burned) 1 cup real mayonnaise 1/2 cup heavy cream, whipped salt to taste
I would chill overnight. This is awesome for a tea with cucumber sandwiches and lemon squares. I consider it a stable. I have seen the grapes substituted with raisins, but grapes are best.
*Apple chunks occasionally fill the bill if grapes are out of season.
Enjoy!! |
