Chicken Salad
4 boneless chicken breasts
1/2 cup celery, diced
1/2 cup onion, minced
1/4 cup flat parsley, basil
1/4 cup pickle relish
1/4 cup mayonnaise
Cook the chicken breasts, shred the chicken and dice into tiny chunks. Mince the onions, celery, parsley, and basil into tiny pieces. Blend together with relish and enough mayonnaise to bond the mixture together. Add salt and pepper to taste.
I had my plain chicken salad with a slice of avocado and a squeeze of lemon. I can almost taste that last bit of summer sunshine!
Y'all enjoy~

I like to add a dash of curry powder to mine as well--spices everything up a bit!
My all time favorite. This is what I order off a menu if I'm not sure what's good. Ditto on the curry powder and I add a little lemon juice to brighten the taste. Think I'll have this for lunch.

Your recipe sounds yummy. I love chicken salad since there is sooo many ways you can make it and they're all good. My favorite - chicken, mayo, celery, toasted pecans or walnuts and crasins. I'm actually have some today for lunch. Yum!
Hugs!

chicken salad is one of my favorite things in the world... I've never tried basil in it before.
This is really, really weird. I was just telling a lady I work with that I had never had chicken salad until about 3 months ago. A little cafe where I live makes it and adds it to an incredible lettuce type salad. Anyway I told her today that I have got to find a good recipe. Did you read my mind?
Looks like one I'll need to try. My family loves chicken so I think this would be a keeper.

Oh my! I love chicken salad! I also chop mine up tiny and I love to add pecans or walnuts and grapes or even cranberries!
Hope you are having a great day!
I love chicken salad and your recipe with the avocado looks delish! I especially like everyone's idea of adding curry. I think I'll try.

Thank you very much for sharing.
Through your blog, a lot of people including me of course have a chance to read and learn from.
I have read some of your post and I really enjoyed reading it.
Thanks again and looking forward for more of your posting soon!
Yum, looks great Sandi. YAY for stuffed avocados. Sometimes for breakfast I stuff an avocado with cottage cheese and top with fresh salsa. I like your idea of dicing up everything really small, more elegant that way...
