I love a good chicken salad! I love to eat it either on bread or with crackers. I love it as a snack or as lunch with a salad (veggie salad) Chicken salad is also a good appetizer to take to work functions or to serve at a holiday party. We served chicken salad as one of the foods at my daughter's 1st birthday party, and everybody loved it. My mother makes a really good chicken salad. Anyhoo, I don't make it all the time, but when I do, I only use a few easy ingredients...

IT'S DAY 5, AND WE'RE SHARING HOLIDAY PARTY FOOD IDEAS!
ingredients: 2 pounds of chicken breasts, 2 eggs, 1 stalk of celery, mayo, & sandwich spread
I boiled the chicken until it was thoroughly cooked. I also boiled two eggs.
I chopped the chicken, celery, and eggs. I only included one of the egg yolks.
I mixed all the chopped ingredients in one of my favorite Rae Dunn bowls.

I added ¼ cup of sandwich spread and ½ cup of mayo.
I mixed everything really well and put it in the fridge to chill overnight.
The next day, my chicken salad was good and cold and ready to serve. I put it in a cute Christmas tree dish
and served it with Melba crackers
and grapes. 😊

DAY 5: HOLIDAY PARTY FOOD IDEAS
I like the way you serve up your homemade chicken salad for the holidays, T'onna!
ReplyDeleteI never realized how easy it is to make a good chicken salad. And I am all about easy these days. It looks so tasty.
ReplyDeleteI refuse to cook on Christmas with the exception of throwing our breakfast casserole in the oven. The rest of the day is spent eating snack-y food that requires zero effort on my part. This recipe totally fits the bill! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThat looks so good! I am ready to dig in!
ReplyDeleteI haven't thought about sandwich spread since I was little like 50 years ago. The stuff was great, I need to go look for some and make this. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI love your Rae Dunn collection and this looks so good! I love it on the Christmas tree tray. My mom and sister love chicken salad.
ReplyDeleteThis looks great, T'onna. Serving chicken salad as a party food is a great idea!
