My mother used to prepare this chicken salad with grapes and almonds for an evening meal during the hot summer months. It's my favorite of my mother's chicken salad recipes. You can also serve it as a delicious but quick luncheon or potluck dish. &mdash;Kathy Kittell, Lenexa, Kansas

This is very good! I gave it 4 stars because I absolutely despise miracle whip and I used regular Mayo instead. I also skipped the kiwi as I forgot to buy it. It made a great salad I could graze on while working.

Outstanding.  One of the best chicken salads we have ever eaten!

In a pinch you can use caned white meat chicken. We don't like onions or celery. Skip the celery & use onion power. I have also put in a mold & released it just before serving.

This is about the only chicken salad I will rat. The almonds add a special crunch!!

I made this salad for a Bridal Luncheon, but served it inside of a scooped out cantlaloupe half. A big hit with everyone.

Really loved this recipe-I added 2 small chopped green apples.

This is by far one of the very best chicken salads I have ever tasted!  My kids don't care for it much, but that's okay.  Love it!  Thanks.

I was really quite skeptical about how some of the ingredients would come together but this turned out wonderful! Specifically the grapes; they were such a nice touch. I actually used a pre-cooked rotisserie chicken (b/c I am lazy). Also, I mixed the last part in a mixer first, then added in the first part (chicken,etc.) and used the stir option on the mixer to combine everything. I served it on a Telera Sandwich roll which was quite good. Thanks so much for sharing! Will def make again!

Very good.  I could do without the green grapes, and I think next time I'll use purple onion or purple grapes to make it a little more colorful.  glad to have the recipe!

What a marvelous blend of ingredients!  I served this at a luncheon and had leftovers for dinner.  My luncheon guests and husband raved about it.  I think their clean plates spoke volumes.  I used mixed greens, dressed lightly with a vinaigrette, and sliced avocados as the bed for a generous mound of chicken salad.  Delightful!!

I made this for ladies card night, along with homemade flatbread. It was tasty, but not everyone was a fan. I liked it, but would have to cut recipe down since its only the two of us.

To answer previous question- I served mine in lettuce leaves.  Like a chicken wrap.  We are trying to stay low carb due to my son being diabetic but you could serve it on croissant bread if you don't care about carbs.

We LOVE this recipe and everyone I have served it to raves about it. However, we do not like celery so we leave it out. To replace the "crunch" factor and to add a bit of flavor I add some granny smith apples chopped. It is delicious!

Wonderful recipe...You can also use in Tuna salad, egg salad, etc. Enjoy!!

A good salad.  I guess I'm just not a huge fan of chicken salads in general, as this still tasted a little bland for me, but of all the ones I've tried, I think this was the best.  The grapes really add to it.....I couldn't imagine not adding them.  I think serving it on a juicy slice of fresh pineapple or cantaloupe would add to it as well, and I liked the idea using greens with a light dressing of vinaigrette and avocados as a base too.

Best chicken salad I have ever had. I made it for a shower and everyone loved it.

This was excellent as is.  Thanks for the recipe.

At first I wasn't sure that the flavors would work well together. But after trying it, I was wrong. This salad has something for all your taste buds. The combination of flavors and textures is excellent. Sometimes I add chopped apple for even more flavor.
