So delicious !! Loved this for my lunch the other day!!

I’m not always a huge chicken salad fan but this recipe is so good, especially over greens! Now I need to try more of your other chicken salad recipes!

This is a perfect Southern Chicken Salad.  I add a drop of honey, but that is a personal preference. No nuts, grapes, or pineapple added - It's not a fruit salad! :)

I made mine a wee bit different,  but omg is amazing. Ty for the recipe!!!
